Chaudey Sparks a Reaction from the Crowd
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Christopher Chaudey raised to 40,000 in middle position and Yifu He three-bet to 110,000 in the cutoff. Chaudey called and the dealer fanned the flop of A♦Q♥J♦. The two players quickly got all of their chips in the middle with Chaudey at risk for 420,000.
Christopher Chaudey: Q♠J♠
Yifu He: A♥Q♦
Both players flopped two pair but it was He who was in the lead. However, the J♣ peeled off on the turn to give Chaudey a full house and the 8♥ completed the board.
"Woah!!!" Brett Kennedy rose from his seat on the turn. "That's sick!" A crowd gathered around the table to see that it was only a two-outer and everyone returned to their seats.
