Level 2: 100 / 200 ante: 200
Chau Chung Yiu Clement

Chung Yin Clement Chao opened to 500 from under the gun and received calls from Ye Li in the cutoff and a player in the big blind.


The flop came J 9 6 and action checked around to Chao who bet 800. Only Li called.


Chao continued for 3,000 on the 6 turn and Li called again. On the K river Chao bet 5,000 and once again Li made the call.


Chao had two pair with A A but Li had rivered the nut-flush with A 9 to win the pot.
