Rivers Freezes Cheong

Five players saw a flop of {K-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and the blinds checked to Joseph Cheong, who bet 300. Only the player on the button made the call and the duo watched the {5-Hearts} hit the turn. Cheong didn't take long to fire out 600, which the button called.

The {5-Spades} river paired the board and halted Cheong's aggression as he checked. The button counted out some chips and flung out a bet of 1,600. Cheong thought for well over a minute before flicking his cards in the muck.
