James Chen Eliminated in 12th Place ($27,214)
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 35,000 ante
George Alexander raised to 55,000 in the cutoff and James Chen called in the big blind, leaving only 40,000 behind.
Chen took two and Alexander one. Alexander then moved all in and Chen folded.
Alexander then raised to 60,000 the next hand and Chen stuck in his last chips. Oscar Johansson also called in the big blind.
Johansson and Alexander drew two, while Chen took one. "Celebrating already?" Alexander said to him.
"I'll take any indication," Chen replied. Alexander then bet 40,000 and Johansson called. Alexander showed 10x8x7x5x2x and Chen mucked a king on his way to the rail in 12th place.
