Zidek Questions Chen
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Alexander Norden opened to 2,000 from the cutoff and Yuhang Chen three-bet from the small blind to 6,000. Patrik Zidek called from the big blind, and Norden folded.
The dealer put out a flop of 6♦5♣7♠ where Chen make a 3,500-chip continuation-bet, which Zidek called pretty quickly.
A 6♠ on the turn saw both players tap the table to see the 3♣ drop on the river. Chen reached for chips and fired out 7,000, which gave Zidek a tough decision.
"This is very difficult, do you have queens?" asked Zidek, who eventually folded.
Chen offered up one card to his opponent and Zidek picked the J♣.
"Did you have jacks?" Zidek asked. Chen didn't say anything, but did give a nod as he continued to stack the chips.
