Lamb Get's One Through on Chen
Level 26
: Limits 120,000/240,000, 0 ante
James Chen raised from the button with A♣6♥4♦4♣ and Ben Lamb defended the big blind holding K♠10♦7♠2♣.
Action would heat up on the 6♣10♣K♥ flop with Lamb flopping top two pair and Chen flopping a pair and a flush draw. Lamb checked and Chen bet, leading Lamb to a check-raise, with Chen calling.
The A♥ on the turn gave Chen two higher pair, but would complete a fairly draw heavy board, prompting a check from both players.
Lamb lead out on the 7♦ river and Chen ended up folding what would've been the winning hand.
