Tsai Wins Three-Bet Pot Against Cheng
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jimmy Torres made it 120,000 to go as the first player to act and Eric Tsai called on the button. Chao-Ting Cheng then three-bet to 450,000 in the small blind and Tsai was the only caller. On a Q?9?3? flop, both players checked and the 8? followed on the turn.
Cheng checked again and Tsai bet 275,000 for his fellow countryman to call. Both checked the 9? river and Cheng flashed what appeared to be A?J? for a busted straight draw. Tsai won the pot with the 6?6? to pull away from Cheng once again.
