Yu and Phua Take From Kong
Level 18
: Blinds 0/0, 60,000 ante
Chen Ming Kong limped with the 10♦9♦ and Winfred Yu checked on the button with the Q♠9♠. On the 10♥9♣6♦ flop, Kong bet 200,000 for Yu to call and the J♥ turn followed. Kong now slowed down and checked, Yu jammed and took down the pot.
Soon after, a three-way limped pot emerged after which Yu folded on the K♣J♣9♣ flop when Kong bet 200,000 from under the gun with 10♣9♠. Paul Phua called on the button with the K♥8♣ and that led them to the 6♦ turn. Kong fired another bet worth 400,000 and was called by Phua.
The river paired the board with the J♦ and they checked it down this time, as Phua claimed the pot to further pull ahead.
