"Skill is a Scam"; Fei Doubles Twice
Immediately after knocking out David Williams, Kevin Eyster called Wesley Fei's shove for 2,100,000 to put him at risk.
Wesley Fei: A♣10♠
Kevin Eyster: A♦9♠
"Agh, nice hand, Wesley," Eyster said when he saw he was dominated.
"Yes! Ace-ten-ten flop!" Fei shouted.
The dealer partially listened, as the flop came out 3♥K♥10♣ to give Fei a pair of tens to take a big lead.
"Yes, you are drawing dead!" Fei continued, and the 3♣ on the turn really did leave Eyster dead while the Q♣ completed the board to award him the double-up.
A few hands later, Pete Chen opened to 420,000 and Fei ripped all in for 4,000,000 and Chen shook his head and made the call.
Wesley Fei: A♠K♣
Pete Chen: A♣Q♦
"Let's GOOO!" Fei screamed as he realized he had Chen crushed.
The board ran out 5♣4♠3♠3♣9♠ for Fei to score yet another massive double-up to make him the dominant chip leader.
"Skill is a scam! Poker is all about energy!" he proclaimed as he raked in the huge pot.
