Chidwick Sits Near the Top of the Pack

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

Stephen Chidwick opened to 16,000 from the button, Ryan "Bill Thunder" Foster defened his big blind and the flop rolled out {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}.

Action checked to Chidwick, he bet 8,000 and Foster check-called to see the {10-Clubs} turn card. Foster tapped once more to Chidwick who again fired, this time for 40,000 and again Foster check-called.

The {3-Spades} completed the board and action checked to Chidwick who instantly shoved all in for more than enough to cover his opponent. Foster called for his 102,000 stack, tabling {8-Spades}{7-Clubs} for a pair of sevens.

Chidwick flipped over {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for two pair, sending another large pot in his direction as he knocked out Foster.
