Chen Wins Blind Versus Blind Battle
Level 6
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau limped the small blind and James Chen checked his option.
When the 7?6?4? flop hit the felt, Vaskaboinikau fired 12,000 and Chen called.
The J? landed on the turn, and Vaskaboinikau continued for 33,000 before Chen raised to 100,000. Vaskaboinikau made the call.
The dealer dropped the 2? on the river and Vaskaboinikau checked to Chen as he slid a stack of greens across the line to bet more than Vaskaboinikau's stack. Vaskaboinikau wasted no time tossing his cards into the muck as the dealer pushed the pot to Chen.
