No Joy for Jim Meehan

After two players limped into the pot, Jim Meehan raised the action to 31,000 from the cutoff only to get reraised all in by Christian Choi in early position.

Meehan made the call and showed {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}, but was way behind Choi's {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. A flop of {K-Spades}{3-Spades}{Q-Hearts} put Choi further ahead, and the turn and river provided no help for Meehan, coming {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}.

With the win, Choi now has a chip stack of 183,000.
