Chu and Cheung Tangle
Justin Chu and Sparrow Cheung battled in a big pot that saw the former take some chips from the latter. Action was picked up on the river with a little over 16,000 in the pot on a board reading just as Cheung led out for a close to pot-size 15,000 bet, only to see Chu move all-in over the top for ~50,000-plus.
According to tablemate James Chen, it was Chu who was the initial preflop raiser, with Cheung making the call from the big blind, with both players checking the flop. Cheung led the turn, with Chu making the call, before all the action on the river.
After some time thinking things over, Cheung elected to fold, dropping down to 53,000 in the process. Chu raked in a chunky pot, climbing to 70,000 and informed Cheung in table chat that he had a full house when the latter asked his holdings after the fact.
