: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Brian Page began the action with a raise to 20,000 from middle position. The table folded around to the big blind, where Yen-Tuan Chen called.
Chen checked the flop of Q♣8♥K♣. Page continued for 30,000, but Chen responded with a raise to 85,000. Page pondered his options before deciding to go all in. Chen quickly called and was at risk.
Yen-Tuan Chen: K♦Q♥
Brian Page: A♦K♥
Chen had out-flopped Page, spiking two pair while Page held only top pair, top kicker. He was unable to find any help on the 5♦3♦ runout, awarding Chen the pot.
