and Bennington continued for 400,000, a bet which Chen called. The

on the river. With the board showing a straight, both players tabled their holdings, and neither Chen's 
or Bennington's 
played chopping the pot.
Hand #50: Chen raised to 240,000 from the hijack, and Kelly defended his big blind by flatting. Teh flop fell 
and Kelly check-folded to a bet of 200,000 by Chen.
