Chen Doubles Through Kambouris

A short-stacked Jacob Chen moved all in from under the gun and the action folded to Sam Khouiss in the small blind, who asked for a count. It was 28,000 and Khouiss anguished over whether he wanted to race before tossing his cards into the muck. It was then with Antonis Kambouris in the big blind, and with plenty of gambling chips behind him he made the call.

Chen: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Kambouris: {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and Chen doubled to 60,000 with Kambouris still in fine shape with 120,000. Sam Khouiss cringed, saying that he folded pocket sevens.
