Chong's Heart Will Go On
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Evgenii Nekrasov raised to 2,700 and a shorter stack then pushed for 26,200. Victor Chong in the cutoff asked for an exact count and called with the covering stack before it folded back to Nekrasov. One minute passed and the Russian then folded.
Shorter stack: A♠K♠
Victor Chong: A♥K♥
The A♦5♦3♥ flop had Chong freerolling and he indeed got there with the 2♥ turn as well as the 10♥ river.
