Chen Cleaning Up

Gregory Gokey has just been eliminated literally by the hands of Tommy Chen.

We caught up to Chen after the hand to see what happened and he informed us that he put Gokey all in for about 13,000 and was called preflop. Chen held {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} while Gokey possessed a superior {10-}{10-}.

A {10-}{7-}{4-} flop looked to give Gokey the double up he desperately needed, but alas a {6-} on the turn and a {8-} on the river brought Chen a winning straight and the knock out blow.
