Chen Bows Out Short of the Money
Level 16
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Ben Heath opened to 160,000 in the cutoff and David Chen made it 705,000 on the button, with just 5,000 behind. The blinds folded and Heath announced all in, leading to Chen flicking in his last chip.
David Chen: J♦10♦
Ben Heath: A♥Q♠
The flop came A♣K♣K♦ to give Heath two pair but Chen picked up a straight draw. The 2♠ and 2♦ runout was not going to help Chen who fled from the tournament area.
