Woooo for Tieu!

A player in middle position raised to 14,000 and Kien Tieu re-raised all in. The other player took a couple of minutes before deciding to call and found he was in a classic coinflip situation with Tieu.

Tieu: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop came out an uneventful {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, but when the {k-Diamonds} hit on the turn Tieu let out a loud whoop and ran away from the table in excitement. The {7-Spades} on the river changed nothing and Tieu doubled his stack to around 240,000.
