Rafferty Takes From Chiu
Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Edwin Chiu is sitting on a mountain of chips but has not long shipped some the way of Tom Rafferty. It was Chiu the man in the driving seat, opening the action from under-the-gun for 35,000 with Rafferty the only caller on the button to take play heads-up to a flop of 
.
This brought a 27,000 continuation bet from Chiu and another call from Rafferty to bring the two to the 
turn, where the action went check, check.
The 
river saw Chiu check once more and Rafferty decided the right amount to bet was 45,000. Chiu called but mucked when Rafferty rolled over 
to climb to 418,000. Chiu still has plenty though and is sitting on 3.1 million, with the tournament floor colouring up some of his massive stack with dark blue 100k chips now in play.
