Loeser Doubles Cheong, Busts Shortly Afterward

The players had not long taken their new seats before we had and all-in and a call with Cheok Ieng Cheong getting his last 61,500 in chips in from under-the-gun plus one and Manig Loeser making the call in late position.

Cheok Ieng Cheong:
Manig Loeser:

Cheong was the at risk player but won his race to double to 125,000 in chips when the board ran out while Loeser dropped to 37,000. Several hands later and it was all over for the German, who departed in 12th place, though unfortunately, we were unable to catch his exit hand.
