Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

John Chu completed from the small blind and Adrian Attenborough made it 2,500 in the big. Chu limp-raised to an unspecified amount as the action was picked up when two 5,000-denomination chips lied in front of him. Attenborough paused for some time and then jammed his 29,600. Chu wasn't particularly happy about his situation but he called nonetheless.

"F**k," Attenborough laughed, turning up . Chu rolled over and Attenborough had at least a queen to hope for. Unfortunately for him, he wouldn't get it as the board ran out .
