Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Joseph Cheong opened with a pot-sized raise to 210,000 from the cutoff and Ka Kwan Lau three-bet to 720,000 on the button. Evangelos Kokkalis four-bet all in for 3,280,000 in the small blind and both Cheong and Lau stuck in the last of their chips as well.
Joseph Cheong:
Ka Kwan Lau:
Evangelos Kokkalis:
An action flop of hit the felt providing each of the players with a little bit of something. However, the
on the turn gave Kokkalis a straight, leaving both of his opponents drawing extremely thin. The
on the river only improved Kokkalis to a straight, eliminating both Cheong and Lau.
