Level 23
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Action folded around to Sam Chartier on the button and he moved all-in for 227,000. Luc Bellerive was in the small blind and looked at Ha Van Nguyen's stack in the big blind, which was slightly more than Chartier's, and moved all-in. Nguyen folded.
Sam Chartier: 
Bellerive: 
Chartier was at risk with ace-queen for a classic flip against the chip leader Bellerive.
The flop came

and the river was the 
to pair Chartier's queen to survive elimination.
