Level 14 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick - Fedor Holz
Stephen Chidwick - Fedor Holz

Stephen Chidwick raised to 23,000 holding the {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} in middle position and Fedor Holz three-bet to 68,000 from the cutoff with the {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}. Action folded back to Chidwick and he decided to call and see the {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop.

Chidwick, who flopped a pair with a straight flush draw, check-called a bet of 105,000 and then checked the {4-Hearts} turn. Holz bet 310,000 with his set of jacks and Chidwick used a time extension before making the call.

The {3-Spades} river was a blank for Chidwick, and he checked for a third time. Holz used a time extension of his own before betting 275,000. Chidwick folded and Holz took over the chip lead.
