Choong Delivers Knockout Blow to Mason
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Action was picked up on the 
flop with three players still in the hand. Craig Mason, in late position, had already moved all in preflop. Yita Choong fired for 75,000 from the cutoff, getting a quick fold from Eugenio Giordano in the big blind, leading to a heads-up showdown.
Craig Mason: 
Yita Choong: 
With no clubs on the board, Mason was drawing thin, needing runner-runner to stay alive. The 
turn was a good start, as he picked up a gutshot, but it proved fruitless as it was Choong who improved on the 
river. Choong scooped the pot while Mason departed for the rail.
