Takayama's Presence Makes Opponents Check
Level 12: 1,000 / 2,000 ante: 2,000
Jaegol Cho opened from middle-position and got called by Filipino poker legend Mike Takayama on the button. Sung Yun in the big-blind also called.
On K♥ 6♥ 3♦ Cho continued with a bet of 4,500. Only Takayama called.
The turn was 5♥ . The potential flush made both players slow down and check.
The river Q♣ once again went without action and Cho opened K♣ T♣ for a winning top pair.
