fell on the turn. Hong checked once more, before Lai moved all in for his last 164,000 in chips. A few minutes passed before Hong made the call, as Lai rolled over his 
. A relieved Hong then tabled his 
and was glad to be in front. The 
completed the board, leaving Hong with the enjoyable task of stacking up his new found wealth after winning the hand, as Lai made his way out of the tournament floor.
