The Fun Zone
"It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt."
That line has been heard time and time again. Over at Table 364 in the corner of the Orange Section in the Amazon Room, Bill Chen and his table mates have been having quite a good time. The beers are flowing and the fun is being had, but recent happenings weren't so much joyful for Stephen Chidwick.
Chen: (X-X) / 
/ (X)
Chidwick: (X-X) / 
/ (X)
Wade Townsend: (X-X) / 
— fold
Picking up the action on fourth street, Chidwick had the best hand showing and bet. Both his opponents called, and then Chen picked up the best hand showing on fifth street. He bet, Chidwick raised, Townsend folded, and Chen called.
On sixth street, Chen led with a bet, and Chidwick called. Then on seventh, both players checked.
Chen showed 
for an eight-seven-four low. Chidwick turned up 
for an eight-seven-six low and lost the pot.
