Chan Takes Out Cheong

Terrence Chan in action

Terrence Chan opened to 3,500 from the button before Chong Wing Cheong made it 9,600 out of the small blind.

Chan made the call and when the {8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop dropped he was faced with a 26,500-chip bet from Cheong.

After mulling over a decision for a few minutes, Chan made the call before seeing the {2-Clubs} fall on the turn and a bet of 25,000 follow from Cheong.

Chan thought for even longer this time, but instead of calling, choose to re-raise all in for his last 43,800. Cheong threw in his last 6,000 or so and the cards were tabled.

Chan: {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Cheong: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The river blanked out with the {4-Spades} landing to see Cheong hit the rail as Chan climbs to 150,000 in chips.
