And just as we were writing about no action there is a sudden burst of activity. We came running but were already too late and arrived in time to see Aric Hui depart at the hands of Sam Cheong.

Hui, holding {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, had turned two pairs and had a club flush draw to go with it when all the chips went in on the turn. Unfortunately for Hui, Cheong, holding {6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} had a higher flush draw and the eight that had given Hui two pair had completed Cheong’s straight.

That’s a bit of a sickening hand, especially when you are short-handed. Hui hit the rail and that pot puts Cheong firmly in the driver's seat with the chip lead and a stack of 57,000.
