Chong Doubles; Sasahara Jams Successfully
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Joining the action on the 8♦7♥5♦J♠ turn, Riku Sasahara checked and Gyuhyuk Lee bet 475,000. What followed was the check-shove by Sasahara and Lee folded.
At the same time one seat over, Alex Chong was all-in for 405,000 with the J♦J♣. Fellow short stack Steve Yea looked him up with A♠9♠ but one nine on the 9♣7♦2♣Q♥7♠ board was not enough for the knockout.
