Hai Bo Chu - 8th Place

Beware the under-the-gun limper. Martin Rowe limped into the pot from under the gun and was joined by Antonio Fazzolari in the small blind and Hai Bo Chu in the big blind. The flop came down {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

. Action checked to Rowe, who fired out for 80,000. That bet folded Fazzolari and brought the action to Chu, who asked how much Rowe was playing behind (590,0000). He then moved all in; Rowe snap-called.

Rowe: {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

Chu:

{J-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

Rowe held the overpair of queens and was in great shape against Chu's naked gutshot draw. Chu hit a pair of eights with the {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

turn, but the river fell {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

to send him to the rail. He earned AU$53,200 for a spirited run through the tournament.
