Chau Sucks Out on Alcorn
Lee Chau opened to 16,000 from early position and received calls from Heather Alcorn on the button and a player in the big blind.
The flop came 7♦6♣3♥. The big blind led out for 20,000 and received calls from both Chau and Alcorn.
The big blind opted to check on the 8♣ turn. Chau moved all in for his last 102,000 and Alcorn raised all in with a covering stack. The big blind got out of the way leaving Alcorn and Chau heads up going into the river.
Lee Chau: K♠5♦
Heather Alcorn: 9♣8♥
Chau was drawing thin on the turn with only a four, nine or king as possible outs against Alcorn's top pair and straight draw. He got exactly what he needed on the 4♥ river, giving him an eight-high straight to secure a full double up, leaving Alcorn with just under 30 big blinds.
