Chen Not So Flushed

MarcC

Joe Sebok raised to 400 and found one caller. Bill Chen made it 1,100 to go from the small blind. Sebok moved out out of the way, but the other player called and we saw a {7-Clubs}

flop.

Chen lead for 3,000 and his opponent moved all-in. Chen called with {K-Clubs}

, but had been out flopped by his opponent's {7-Spades}

. The turn {6-Clubs}

gave Chen a flush draw and it came with the {5-Clubs}

river, but it also paired the board to make a full house for his foe.

Chen had the stack to survive it though and is still above average with 13,000.

Audley Harrison, Heavy Weight gold medal winner from the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, is playing today and has amassed a healthy stack.

He just let some go though after calling a preflop raise, a flop bet and a turn bet before checking behind on a {10-Diamonds}

board. His {A-Clubs}

was no good against his opponent's {A-Diamonds}

.

"I put you on kings," he mused. Still on 10,500 though.

What Are the Chances?

MarcC

If you could choose two players to put next to one another for a rematch, you would choose these two.

Sitting right next to each other are last year's Main Event winner and runner-up Peter Eastgate and Ivan Demidov!

The gloves are off.
