Chen and Angelil Playing Street Poker
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
On a board of 9♣5♠7♦J♥6♥, there were around 70,000 chips in the pot when Yosef Negussie bet 40,000 from the big blind and Isaac Baron put in a raise to 115,000 on the button.
Negussie thought about it for a while, but eventually decided to give it up.
On a table nearby, another big pot was brewing. The board read Q♣10♣A♠J♥ with around 220,000 in the pot and both Yuhang Chen in the cutoff and Rene-Charles Angelil on the button checked.
A 2♠ dropped on the river and again both decided to knuckle it to showdown.
Chen showed A♦5♦ for a pair of aces, but Angelil flipped Q♦J♣ for two pair to scoop it.
"Wow, you boys are playing some street poker," said one of the table.
