Chidwick Jumps into The Lead

No-Limit Hold'em

Stephen Chidwick raised under the gun to 25,000, and the action was folded to Ben Yu. Yu was on the button, and he put in a three-bet to 70,000. Chidwick called.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{J-Spades}, and Chidwick check-called 125,000. The turn was the {4-Clubs} and Chidwick checked once again.

Yu fired out a hefty 250,000 chip bet, but it didn't impress Chidwick. The Brit moved all in, and Yu tanked for a bit before folding.

Chidwick has grabbed the chip lead, while Yu has been knocked far down.
