Chen Burns Three Extensions

Level 3 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

With 75,000 in the pot, James Chen bet 35,000 in the small blind on {5-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Ali Imsirovic made it 115,000 in the cutoff and Chen stuck around for the {6-Clubs} river. He checked and faced a bet of 155,000.

Chen went deep into the tank before folding and asked Alex Foxen how many time cards he needed to throw in. Foxen signaled for three and Chen gave them up.
