More Chips for Chua, Botta Slipping
Level 10
: 700/1,400, 200 ante
Overnight chip leader Vincent Chua raised from under the gun to 3,000 before Daniel Botta three-bet to 8,500 in the small blind. Chua made the call before the two kept it friendly with a couple of checks on the 
board.
When the 
river landed, Botta made a bet of 12,000 to give Chua something to think about. The two exchanged some friendly banter before Chua eventually made the call.
Botta showed 
expecting to be good but Chua had 
for a sneaky set on the river.
“I was trying to decide whether to raise, but I didn’t know what you could call with,” defended Chua as he climbs, while Botta slipping back to 65,000.
