Chen and Becker Win in Showdown
Level 21
: Limits 40,000/80,000, 0 ante
James Obst lost a portion of his stack to James Chen when he announced a straight on the J?10?4?4?Q? river. Chen's K?J?3?2? for the king-high flush secured the pot as he surpassed Obst on the leaderboard once again.
Soon after, Johannes Becker and Luis Velador checked down the 5?5?4?J?2? river. Becker announced queen-jack and exposed his Q?J?6?2?, as Velador double-checked his cards and tossed them in the muck.
