Chidwick Wins the Race to Knock Out Tang
Action folded to Danny Tang in the hijack, and he raised to 80,000. It then folded to the big blind Stephen Chidwick, who three-bet all in for Tang's stack of 955,000, which Tang called.
Danny Tang: A♠Q♥
Stephen Chidwick: J♥J♦
It was a race for Tang's tournament life, but the A♦J♣10♣ flop put Chidwick in a dominant position after flopping a set. The A♥ on the turn improved Chidwick to a full house, but did give Tang outs to make a bigger full house. However, the 4♣ on the river was no help to Tang, and Chidwick took the pot and sent Chidwick to the rail with his full house, jacks full of aces.
