Battle of the Blinds

With the action folded around the table, Jacob Chen moved all in from the small blind. Looking down at {A-Spades} {8-Diamonds}, Kent Hunter made the call from the big, putting his remaining 32,500 chips in the middle. Chen turned over {5-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} -- behind, but drawing live with a chance to eliminate another player.

The flop was disastrous for Hunter, coming down {6-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {7-Hearts} and vaulting Chen into the lead. The turn helped add a few more outs for the all-in player, as the {10-Clubs} gave him the added benefit of a straight draw. Hunter missed his straight, but the river brought a beautiful {8-Spades}, bringing him back into the lead and earning him a timely double up. He is now at 68,000, while Chen has slipped back to 75,000.
