Chen Recovers a Little, Johansson Knocks Him Back Down
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 35,000 ante
James Chen had moved all in three times in recent hands and found no callers as he built his stack back up to more than 400,000.
He then opened to 50,000 in the hijack and Oscar Johansson called in the cutoff.
Both players drew one and Chen checked to Johansson, who bet 160,000. Chen took a few minutes before calling as Johansson showed 8x7x4x3x2x to win the pot and knock Chen back to a short stack.
