Chen Doubles Matsueda
Level 37
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Andy Chen kicked off the action on the button with a raise to 2,500,000. Junya Matsueda, in the big blind, decided to go all in with his remaining 10,300,000. After asking the dealer for a count, Chen called.
Junya Matsueda: A?K?
Andy Chen: 4?4?
Chen, slightly ahead with his pocket fours, was hoping Matsueda would miss the board. However, luck favored Matsueda as he hit an ace on the flop A?J?5?. The turn 8? and river 8? brought no help for Chen, securing the double-up for Matsueda.
