Tao Chu opened from under the gun and made the quick call after TJ Murphy moved all in from the cutoff.
TJ Murphy: A?J? 
Tao Chu: A?Q?
Murphy was in trouble before the dealer fanned out the 8?6?J? flop, making a pair to take the lead. The 10? turn and 3? river secured the double up for Murphy, leaving a dent in Chu's stack.
