Roberts Runs Into Another Big Pair as Chen Doubles
Level 11
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Jonathan Roberts raised to 3,500 in middle position before Lin Chen three-bet to 8,500 in the hijack. Roberts then moved all in and Chen snap-called for 33,400.
Lin Chen: Q♥Q♣ 
Jonathan Roberts: 10♣10♠
Roberts was again up against a big pair and needed help to avoid handing over another big pot. The board ran out A♣4♣J♥J♣5♣ to give both players a flush, but Chen's queen earned him the pot and a double up.
