Cheong Doubles Through Fabian

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

The board read {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and a sizable pot was already sitting in the middle when we found Vasile Fabian and Joseph Cheong heads up. Fabian was first to act and led at the middle for 500,000. Cheong replied by shipping all in over the top for 1.185 million. Fabian called and the cards were tabled.

Cheong: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Fabian: {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The board finished with the {2-Hearts}, securing Cheong a double up with his flopped set of eights. Fabian's stack was knocked down to 500,000 while Cheong now sits right around three million.
