Chiu Chips Up

Level 6 : 100/200, 0 ante

With the board reading {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} the player in the small blind bet 1,800 and David Chiu called. The river brought the {2-Spades} and the small blind checked it over to Chiu who bet 2,600. The small blind went into the tank for a good long while. As the table waited for him to make his decision Chiu said "It's hard to lay down kings sometimes." The player folded soon afterward and looked fairly confident about his choice.

After the hand Chiu was up to around 11,000.
