If You Don't Know, Now You Know... Coleem Chestnut Can Play the Game
If You Don't Know, Now You Know... Coleem Chestnut Can Play the Game

Colleem Chestnut just took down a 200,000+ chip after making an extremely impressive call on the river.

Samir Charwa opened for 14,000 and Chestnut flatted to take the {q-}{5-}{3-} flop. After a c-bet of 24,000 by Charwa, who held one of the larger stacks in the room at that point, Chestnut smooth-called once more, bringing a {2-} on the turn.

Another bet of 44,000 did not faze the Brooklyn native, and Chestnut came along to see a {Q-} drop on the river.

Charwa made another 44,000 bet on fifth street, but Chestnut was undeterred and looked his man up.

Showdown:

Chestnut: {5-}{7-}
Charwa: {4-}{4-}

Chestnut took the enormous pot down with just a pair of fives, earning the respect and admiration of his astounded tablemates, one of whom clapped Chestnut on the back in congratulation while praising his play.
