Ugly Chop for Chidwick
Level 17
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
In the previous hand, Stephen Chidwick was all in with 
against Igor Kurganov's 
and the two chopped it up. This time, Chidwick was in the small blind and he limped in. JC Alvarado checked his option.
The flop brought 
and Chidwick bet 40,000. Alvarado shoved, Chidwick double-checked, then called off his stack of around 350,000.
Stephen Chidwick: 
JC Alvarado: 
Chidwick was miles ahead of Alvarado, who was nearly drawing dead. After the 
turn and river, though, a straight hit the board to chop the pot up.
