Dion Survives a Sweat, Chang Busts

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

From middle position Charles Chang moved all in for his final 20,400. Howard Dion thought for a bit before deciding to call all in for 18,300 from the big blind. Dion's Hollywooding didn't get the blinds to come along and he calmly flipped over his {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}. Chang held the {10-Spades}{9-Spades}.

The {J-Spades}{6-Spades}{J-Hearts} flop gave Chang some hope and Dion a sweat. The turned was the {6-Clubs}, the {8-Clubs} river bricked Chang again and his chip stack fell to just single big blind.

A few hands later he was able to find a flipping situation but was unable to win. After a friendly hug from a competitor and Chang is on the rail.
