Chang Running Hot

PokerNews was around as the table was commenting on how well Jen Chang was running. He was involved in and winning multiple pots in the lead-up to this hand.

The action was opened under the gun to 12,000. Chang then put in a cold three-bet to 25,000 from the cutoff and it folded back to the original raiser who called.

The 3♠10♠5♠ flop landed and action quickly checked through to an A♣ turn.

Action checked through again and the river landed the K♦. The under the gun player opted to lead out for 30,000. Cheng didn't think for a second before putting in a raise to 65,000. The original raiser thought for only a moment before he called.

Chang announced "ace-king...and spades" as he rolled over A♠K♠ for the stone cold nuts. His opponent shook his head and flashed A♦K♥ as he mucked.

Chang really is running hot.
