Chen Gets Lucky to Move into Chip Lead

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante
Yisha Chen
Yisha Chen

We noticed Yisha Chen dragging a large pot, possibly the biggest of the tournament so far.

Yesset Aimukhanov filled us in on the action. Three players all saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and the three got it in.

Player 1: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Player 2: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Yisha Chen: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Chen held pocket aces but was behind in two spots to her opponents. However, the {a-Spades} turn soon changed things and the river {k-Diamonds} sent one player to the rail and the other was left with just fumes.

Meanwhile Chen moves over 80,000 in chips.
