Level 13
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
A blind-on-blind battle between Ling Chen and Dale Wilson had reached the 6♦9♣J♠J♥6♥ river. With 85,000 in the middle, Chen checked to Wilson. Wilson moved all in, covering Chen's stack of 112,000.
Chen spent some time in the tank before he flicked in a calling chip. Wilson could only show king-high with his K♠8♥, and Chen celebrated as he took down the pot with 8♠6♠.
Just prior to this hand, Ding Fan had eliminated Harish Sahnan from this table, seeing the chipleader soar to a stack of 120 big blinds.
