Chidwick Doubles with Big Slick

Level 3 : 150/300, 300 ante

Kevin Hobbs opened to 1,100 from early position and Stephen Chidwick called from the cutoff along with the button. Noah Schwartz three-bet to 4,500 from the small blind and Hobbs quickly called. Chidwick splashed in the rest of his 36,600 chips forcing the button to quickly fold. Schwartz called while Hobbs reluctantly gave up his hand.

Stephen Chidwick: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Noah Schwartz: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Clubs} giving Chidwick the lead with a pair of kings, while Hobbs went into a state of distress, stating he folded pocket tens. Meanwhile, Schwartz would be looking for a jack, and a jack only, to win the pot. The {9-Diamonds} on the turn provided him with some straight outs, but the {8-Spades} on the river bricked off and Chidwick scored a big double up.
