Bill Chen Can Beat a Full House

Chen contemplates the odds
Chen contemplates the odds
Bill Chen (X)(X) {2-?} {K-?} {4-?} {J-?} (X)
Opponent (X)(X) {A-?} {5-?} {5-?} {5-?} (X)

Bill Chen completed the bet on third street, his opponent raised with an ace up and Chen made the call. He faced a bet on fourth street after catching a king.

"OK, I'll make a loose call," Chen quipped as he tossed in his chips.

Chen led on fifth street when his opponent paired fives and got a call, then led again on sixth when he caught trip fives. Again, his opponent called. Chen bet seventh street and finally, his opponent gave up his hand.

"What you got there?" asked Daniel Negreanu, sitting a few seats away.

"I can't show," quipped Chen.

"You got a full house?" Negreanu asked of Chen's opponent.

He got a sheepish nod in reply.

Chen took down the pot and is off to a good start with 8,700 in chips.
