Chang Wins Three-way

Cheng Hui Chang opened the action from under-the-gun with a raise to 300, picking up a caller in the form of Hsui Pei Shun in the hijack, before cutoff Shao Hong Lee juiced it up to 1,500. The blinds got out of the way and both Chang and Shun made the call to take the action three-way to a flop of .

The rainbow nature of the flop didn't slow down the action any, and while Chang checked, Shun wasn't shy and pushed in a bet of 600. Lee did not take long to call, and Chang shrugged and tossed in the call to keep the three players in action going to the turn.

Now Chang sprang into action, leading for 5,000 and while that was enough to get Shun to bow out, Lee made the call to take action heads-up to the river.

Chang announced 'all-in' for around 21,500 and Lee mulled over his options, eventually deciding a fold was in order, leaving Chang free to scoop a decent-sized early pot.
