Chidwick Gives It Up

Frank Visser

Level 4 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress raised to 10,000 from under the gun, and Stephen Chidwick was the only caller, from the big blind. The two players then both checked on the 10?4?8? flop, after which Chidwick led out for a hefty 40,000 chips on the 7? turn, almost twice the size of the pot.

Dvoress was not deterred, however, and made the call. The A? river saw Chidwick slow down with a check, and Dvoress took the opportunity to bet 31,000 chips.

Chidwick did not give it much thought before making the fold, seeing himself dwindle to under the starting stack.
