Niveau 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A player in early position raised to 800. Kevin Chong three-bet to 2,700 from late position and was faced with a 10,000 four-bet from the small blind. The early position player got out of the way and Chong moved all in, covering his opponent's stack of roughly 40,000. The small blind called and cards were tabled.

Small Blind: A♦K♦
Kevin Chong: Q♥Q♣

"I need help!" Chong said as the board was dealt. Fortunately there was no ace or king on the runout, resulting in the small blind being eliminated while Chong pulled in a massive pot early on.
