Chen Four-Bets Sasaki
Level 11
: Blinds 0/0, 2,000 ante
Phil Hellmuth opened to 8,000 from middle position with 60,000 behind and was then three-bet by Nobuaki Sasaki in the cutoff to 26,000.
The action was then on Dong Chen on the button who thought about it for a second before putting in the four-bet to 75,000.
Hellmuth quickly folded and Sasaki went briefly into the tank but eventually decided to let it go and the pot was pushed over to Chen to increase his already impressive stack to 810,000.
