Chips Galore for Cheng-Wei Yin
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Belgium's Cheng-Wei Yin is by far the chip leader sitting on a stack of 270,000 chips. However, he says he hasn't done anything special to get there.
When speaking to him, it was just after him losing a small hand, at least for his stack. Franck Lelong raised preflop to 2,500 chips from the cut-off. Yin then three bet the action to 7,500. Francois Hardel called from the small blind and Lelong also decided to stay in the action.
All players checked after the flop came out 
. However, when the 
came on the turn Hardel shoved all in for around 29,000 chips. Lelong folded after thinking for a minute, and Yin seemed to be internally debating what to do when he tanked for about 4 minutes before giving up on his hand.
