Chen Doubles Through Petrangelo
Level 15
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Canlin Chen opened the action with a raise to 57,000 from early position and action folded around to Mikita Badziakouski in the small blind, who re-raised to 150,000.
Big blind Nick Petrangelo asked both players how much they had before moving all-in, putting Chen to a tough decision.
The Chinese player burned through a time bank chip (he had all three) before making the call for his tournament life and Badziakouski got out of the way.

The board ran out to give Chen the double, which he celebrated with a fist pump.
