Yu and Chidwick Chop a Pot
Niveau 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ben Yu raised to 16,000 and Stephen Chidwick defended the big blind. Both checked the 7♠7♥4♣ flop after a brief staring contest and Chidwick then led the 4♥ turn, earning a reluctant call from Yu.
On the 6♦ river, Chidwick bet another 40,000 and Yu came along. Chidwick announced ace-deuce-six and showed his A♥9♣6♥2♠ for sevens and sixes as well as the nut low. Yu won the high pot with the A♠A♣J♦4♦ for trips fours to chop it up.
Michael Wang, who started the day second in chips, had previously been eliminated from the table while former big stack Allan Le dropped to a shorter stack.
