Chong Doubles; Sasahara Jams Successfully

Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Joining the action on the 8?7?5?J? turn, Riku Sasahara checked and Gyuhyuk Lee bet 475,000. What followed was the check-shove by Sasahara and Lee folded.
At the same time one seat over, Alex Chong was all-in for 405,000 with the J?J?. Fellow short stack Steve Yea looked him up with A?9? but one nine on the 9?7?2?Q?7? board was not enough for the knockout.
