River Bet Takes It for Chen
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The pot was around 70,000 with the board showing K♣6♠5♥3♠. James Chen in the small blind checked to Umberto Ruggeri in early position, who checked back.
The 4♥ completed the board. Chen led out for 40,000, and Ruggeri went into the tank, burning through two time bank cards before making the call. Chen tabled K♦Q♣ for a pair of kings, and Ruggeri quickly mucked, conceding the pot.
