Alaei Claims Chidwick's Chips

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Soon after play began, Stephen Chidwick found himself in a preflop battle with Daniel Alaei in which the latter was playing from the button and Chidwick from the blinds.

Having committed significant chips before the {3-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, Chidwick got the rest of his stack in at that point with {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, but unfortunately for him Alaei had flopped a flush with {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Chidwick was drawing especially thin, and after the {9-Spades} fell on the turn there were no river cards that could save him, making the fifth street {3-Diamonds} just a final bit of trivia as Chidwick hits the rail in 32nd place.
