Stephen Chidwick had never played a hand of short deck poker before taking his seat here in Jeju but his first experience with the dynamic game was the best imaginable.

Chidwick peeled {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} in the cutoff, facing a limp from Ben Lamb and a shove of 72,000 from Wai Kin Yong. Chidwick looked him up and found himself dominating Yong's {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}.

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{8-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} and Chidwick's tens held to help him nearly double his belongings right off the bat. Yong fired another bullet and continued with 100,000.
