Hand #63 - Chino Rheem Doubles Through Ivan Demidov

Chino!
Chino!
Peter Eastgate has the button in Seat 9. Chino Rheem moves all in for his remaining 2,700,000 and Ivan Demidov makes the call.

Rheem {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}
Demidov {9-Spades} {9-Hearts}

The flop is {8-Spades} {7-Hearts} {5-Diamonds}, Demidov's nines still leading. Rheem is looking for an ace or a king to survive... and he hits the {K-Diamonds} on the turn as the room explodes. Every fan in the theatre is on their feet as the dealer burns and turns the river. The {J-Diamonds} falls and Rheem doubles up.

"Chino! Chino! Chino!" chants the crowd as he rakes in the pot. He's now up to 6,450,000.
