Chen Rivers a Straight
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
On a board of 10?Q?8? and with around 25,000 chips in the pot, the small blind bet 5,000, and James Chen called.
Both checked the 6? turn to see the J? land on the river. The small blind bet 15,000, and Chen called.
The small blind confidently flipped over J?J? for a rivered set, but Chen had the winner holding 9?9? after he hit a straight.
