Derek Cheong Eliminated in 13th Place

The rich are getting richer over on Table 6, as Vladimir Geshkenbein just added an extra 150,000 to his stack with the elimination of Hong Kong resident Derek Cheong. Danny Huynh recalled the details of the hand for us:

Geshkenbein opened with a raise to 22,000 holding {A-?}{4-?} offsuit. Cheong then moved all in over the top for a total of ~140,000 with {Q-?}{3-?} off. Geshkenbein made the call sending the hand to a showdown, where he managed to spike an ace on the turn to take down the pot.

Geshkenbein now sits with just over 1.3 million in chips, alone at the top of the leaderboard.
