Jang Triples Up, Chen Left with Three Bigs
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action was picked up with three players - Hyunsick Jang in cutoff all in for 167,000, Huabao Chen in the big blind all in for 184,000, and Kevin Nee in the small blind who covered both players.
Hyunsick Jang: K♥K♦ 
Huabao Chen: A♥Q♥
Kevin Nee: 6♦4♦
The dealer flopped 8♦10♦2♠ which kept Jang's lead but gave Nee a flush draw. Chen was still hoping to hit his ace, but the turn K♣ gave Jang a set, strengthening his lead.
Chen, however, did pick up additional outs with a straight draw, while Nee was still waiting for a diamond to fall.
The river 8♣ cemented Jang's triple up with a full house.
A very small side pot of 34,000 went to Chen, but he got eliminated a few hands later.
