Cho Out Kicks Nguyen To Double Up
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Sungmi Cho raised to 9,000 from the hijack, and was called by Robert Nguyen in the cutoff.
After the 7?2?4? flop, Nguyen called a bet of 12,000 from Cho.
The turn brought the K? and Cho fired out 22,000, before Nguyen raised him all in, for his stack of 119,000. After sitting in the tank, Cho made the call to put his tournament at risk.
Sungmi Cho: K?Q?
Robert Nguyen: K?J?
As soon as Cho made the call, Nguyen grimaced knowing he had kicker problems. Once the river was the 8?, Cho still had the best hand and secured the double up.
