JC Chen Eliminated in 4th Place ($28,795)
Not long ago JC Chen was on the top of the world, but two back-to-back hands has sent him to the rail.
The first was a major cooler and began when Mike Deis opened for 125,000 on the button. Chen caled from the small blind and then checked when the flop came down 
. Deis continued for 125,000, Chen check-raised to 375,000, and Deis pushed back to 750,000. Chen announced that he was all in, and Deis called off for 1.595 million!
Deis: 
Chen: 
It was a brutal set-over-set situation, and unfortunately for Chen he was on the wrong end of it. The other players and spectators were in disbelief, and everyone watched quietly as the 
was put out on the turn followed by the 
on the river. Chen was left with just 230,000.
In the very next hand, Chen moved all in from the button with the 
only to run into the 
of Jason Zarlenga in the big blind. Chen called for a seven, but it never came as the board ran out 
. Many of the spectators offered Chen their condolences and agreed that it was just bad luck.
