Cheong Induces the Bluff

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

Lee Hon Cheong checked from the small blind in a bloated pot with a straight on the board: {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. His opponent in early position slid in 40,000. Cheong asked if the player was all in. Informed he wasn't, Cheong called off his stack of 26,250.

Cheong: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Cheong had the higher straight and doubled through.
