Kong Takes No Risks With Aces
Level 14
: Blinds 0/0, 25,000 ante
Winfred Yu limped the Q♣J♣ and Paul Phua did so with the J♦9♦ in the hijack. Chen Ming Kong in the cutoff raised to 300,000 with the A♠A♦ and table short stack Jun Wah Yap folded out of the big blind.
Yu opted to call and Phua folded.
The A♣K♦J♠ flop gave Kong the top set while Yu held bottom pair and a gutshot, as well as back door clubs. He checked and Kong riffled his larger chip denominations before moving all-in for 2,000,000, which forced a fold from Yu.
