Cheong Goes Runner-Runner to End the Night

Level 31 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

The action folded to the button who shipped all in for roughly 2,700,000 and Joseph Cheong called from the big blind. Cheong tabled {a-Spades}{q-Spades} but was flipping against his opponent's {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Cheong was in need of runner-runner outs. The {5-Spades} on the turn provided him with a flush draw and the {k-Spades} was one of the miracle cards he was looking for. Cheong rivered a flush and his opponent sat in his seat for a couple of extra moments as he couldn't believe what just happened.
