Hesse Takes From Chen

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Yuchen Chen made it 50,000 to go in late position. It folded to Stephen Hesse in the big blind, who three-bet to 180,000. Chen called to the Q♣3♦Q♠ flop, where Hesse continued for 100,000.

Chen called to the 9♣ turn, where Hesse slowed down and checked. Chen responded with a bet of 150,000, which Hesse quickly called.

The J♣ river was checked to showdown, and Hesse's K♠K♥ defeated the A♦K♣ of Chen as a massive preflop cooler was avoided.
