Pak Plays for It All

Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

With roughly 35,000 in the pot and a board dealt to a 69JJ turn, Chris Nguyen checked in the big blind. Edward Pak put a bet of 22,000 into the pot from middle position, which was met with a check-raise from Nguyen to 51,000. Pak took some time to decide how to respond, utilizing one of his time extensions, before moving all in for around 160,000. Nguyen wasted no time in folding.
