Cheong's Ten-High is Good
We caught up with the action on a 
flop, where Joseph Cheong (in the big blind) checked-called a 26,000 bet from Conrad Coetzer in early position.
The turn brought the 
and Cheong again check-called a bet from Coetzer - this time for 42,000.
Cheong checked a third and final time on the 
river and Coetzer deliberated a bit before announcing, "Check."
"Ten-high," Cheong said. Coetzer looked reluctant to show and Cheong flipped over 
for jacks and fives with a ten kicker. Coetzer looked at Cheong's cards and....mucked.
Cheong is up to 920,000 while Coetzer has slid down to 600,000.
