Cho Picks the Wrong Time to Get Creative
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Wooram Cho raised to 1,600 under the gun before Miroslav Salaj three-bet to 4,000 in middle position. Vasileios Chatzilazarou called on the button, but Cho put in a four-bet to 13,000.
Salaj five-bet to 35,000 and Chatzilazarou got out of the way. Cho asked how much Salaj had behind before moving all in, and Salaj snap-called for 150,000.
Miroslav Salaj: A?A?
Wooram Cho: A?5?
Cho had made a move right into Salaj's aces and was left with even fewer outs after the J?7?10? flop as Salaj picked up the nut flush draw. The 5? fell on the turn and Cho had one out heading to the river, but no miracles arrived on 2? as Salaj earned the massive double up.
