Chen Rivers the Straight for Profit

by Christian Zetzsche • September 27, 2026 - 11:54 AM

Yu Jui Chen limped the button with the 9 ♦️ 7 ♠️ and Daeyoung Park checked the J ♠️ 10 ♦️ to the 10 ♣️ 8 ♥️ 5 ♦️ flop. Park check-raised from 500,000 to 1,500,000 and Chen stuck around with his open-ended straight draw.

That brought them to the 5 ♠️ turn on which both checked and headed to the 6 ♥️ on the river. Chen made his straight and Park checked to him.

After looking visibly confused, Chen used a time bank extension and then bet 3,500,000 to get quickly called by Park.
