Cheong Takes Some From Hellmuth
![Chad Holloway](https://pnimg.net/w/editors/2/63d/aff9e86acc.png)
Phil Hellmuth limped from the small blind and Joseph Cheong checked his option from the big. The flop saw Hellmuth check-call a bet of 60,000, and then he checked dark headed to the
river. Cheong bet 110,000, Hellmuth called again, and the
completed the board on the river.
This time Hellmuth took the initiative and led out for 190,000, which Cheong called. "Queen," Hellmuth said while tabling , but it was no good against Cheong's
flopped two pair.
