Jiang Spikes the River in a Massive Pot to Send Chew to the Showers

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante
Stevan Chew
Stevan Chew

Michael Hahn limped in under the gun and action folded to Sosia Jiang in the cutoff. She raised to 800. Stevan Chew was next to act on the button and he made it 2,800. Everyone folded back to Jiang and she four-bet, making it 11,000. Chew just called.

The flop was {7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Jiang thought for a while before betting 7,500. Chew called.

The {8-Diamonds} hit the turn and Jiang thought for a while again before moving all in for about 30,000 effective, covering Chew's stack. Chew leaned back, checked his cards, then called.

Stevan Chew: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}
Sosia Jiang: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}

Chew was well ahead and just needed to fade a king to stay alive but it was the {K-Diamonds} that hit the river. With that, Chew was sent to the rail as the first player to fall while Jiang moved over 100,000 early here on Day 1.
