Chen Not So Flushed

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} {Q-Clubs} {5-Hearts} flop.

Chen lead for 3,000 and his opponent moved all-in. Chen called with {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}, but had been out flopped by his opponent's {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}. 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.
