Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Xi Chen open-shoved all-in for 44,000 in middle position.Vincent Robert in the cutoff shoved all-in for around 120,000, pushing everyone else out of the hand. Chen and Robert went to a showdown of:

Xi Chen: 8♦7♦ All in
Vincent Robert: A♥Q♦

Robert was ahead with ace-high on the flop of 6♣9♠9♣. But it gave Chen an open-ended straight draw and a chance to stay in the tournament. The turn 5♦ completed his draw making Robert frown. The river K♦ was dealt with no consequence.

Robert matched Chen's chips, visibly frustrated with the turn of events.
