Chen Gets There Against Barer
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Ami Barer opened from early position and was called by Yisha Chen in the small blind for a heads-up pot.
Chen checked-called a 5,000 bet from Barer on the 5♥6♠2♦ flop and both players checked on the 10♠ turn.
The 8♣ completed the board and Chen fired 20,000 into the middle. Barer looked a bit pained, but stuck in a reluctant call.
Chen revealed 9♥7♦ for a straight and Barer flung his hand into the muck.
