Back-and Forth They Go
Level 11
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Ben Yu was all in for 110,000 as Stephen Chidwick had him covered and at risk.
Ben Yu: 9♣7♣
Stephen Chidwick: A♥2♥
"Another classic flip," Yu said heading to the 10♣A♣J♥ flop, which gave him a flush draw and Chidwick top pair. The 8♠ on the turn improved Yu to a straight, while the 6♣ river also gave him a flush as he doubled up.
A few hands later, Chidwick was all in for around 80,000.
Stephen Chidwick: A♦A♥
Ben Yu: K♣Q♣
Chidwick had woken up with aces, and there wouldn't be any help for Yu this time on the 2♣3♦9♠2♦8♠ board.
"Double up, double down," Yu said.
