Lo Aggression Pays Off
Cheng Yen Lo opened for 1,800, picking up calls from Chuning Tan on the button and Hyunyeop Jeong in the big blind. The dealer spread a flop of 3♣ 6♣ A♦ , and after Jeong checked, Lo continued with a 2,200 bet. Tan called, while Jeong folded, leaving the two to battle it out.
Slowing down on the 6♦ turn, both players checked. On the Q♥ river, Lo applied maximum pressure with an all-in shove, forcing Tan to fold. With that, Lo scooped the pot without needing a showdown.
