Once Robert Williamson III made his exit, so too did his rail which made up the large majority of the noise throughout the final table. There are only five spectators left now who are letting the players play quietly for the most part other than an occasional clap for Rep Porter.
Porter: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Chen: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Rep Porter called the bring in and then Tommy Chen’s completion as well. Chen led out on fourth and Porter made the call. The action was reversed on fifth where Porter bet and Chen called. The action on sixth was the same as on the previous street and Porter led out once more on seventh. Chen came back with a raise this time but after Porter three-bet, Chen gave up. The hand caused the players to swap places as Porter took the chip lead while Chen became the shortest stack although all three players aren't separated by too much.
