Chen Hits His Jack

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Ke Chen found himself on the brink of elimination when he four-bet shoved pocket jacks into pocket queens for a pot of 170,000. The flop {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{9-Spades} gave Chen the much-needed jack, which he celebrated with a very audible cheer.

The {8-Hearts} on the turn and {7-Clubs} on the river kept Chen in front, and his disgusted opponent had to fork over 80,000 of his stack.
