Chen Quadruples Up
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Under the gun limped in for 800, James Chen limped in from middle position before the hijack raised to 4,400. The cutoff three-bet to 15,000 and action folded around to the big blind.
Vincent Moscati four-bet all in from the big blind for 47,000, the under-the-gun player folded, and James Chen called all in for his remaining 11,000. The hijack called all in, covering the entire table and the cutoff called for his last 30,000 chips.
James Chen: 7?6?4?3?
Cutoff: A?K?9?3?
Vincent Moscati: A?A?Q?6?
Hijack: A?K?K?5?
The board ran out 6?4?9?5?Q? and Chen drilled his straight to stay alive. Moscati's pocket aces held for a sizeable side pot and only the cutoff was eliminated.
