Leong Chipping Up, Loeser and Yong Tangle
It appears that Malaysia’s Chan Wai Leong has been a busy bunny and has managed to run his stack up to over the 3-million mark to catch up with Richard Yong and Manig Loeser. Peter Chan is the current short stack and John Juanda is sitting there patiently in the middle of the pack.
However, the German player has not long extended his lead after tangling in a pot with Richard Yong. Loeser was the pre-flop aggressor, making it 210,000 to go from the cutoff and Yong decided to defend his big blind.
The flop fell with Yong check-calling Loeser’s 125,000 continuation bet and the hit the turn. This brought checks from both players with Yong choosing to take a stab on the river, leading out for a pot sized 400,000.
Loeser stared him down and slid in the call and Yong folded immediately leaving the German to scoop the pot and edge even more ahead of the rest of the field.
