Cheng Chips Up, Matton Recovers Quickly
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Simon Cheng raised to 1,000 from under the gun and received a single call, from Joseph Matton on the button.
Cheng checked a flop of 2?8?3? and Matton took the opportunity to fire out a bet of 1,100. Cheng called.
Both players checked a 4? turn and when the river fell 5?, Cheng took the initiative once more, making it 1,300 to go, which was enough to take the hand.
Matton did not let the setback affect his focus though, and was seen raking in a pot just a few hands later.
