With the Cameras Rolling, Bill Chen Goes All in

Timing is everything for Bill Chen. ESPN stopped by his table in the middle of a hand that put Chen all in. He began the hand with queens in the hole and failed to improve the rest of the way. When it was time to show down the cards, Bill said "Just a pair," in a tone of assumed defeat. His opponent then said, "Me too," and showed a pair of sevens in the hole.

The hand boosted both Chen's stack (17,000) and his confidence; the usually stoic Chen held his heart in relief in a rare display of emotion at the table.
