Trading Places

If one players goes up the chip counts, mathematics says another player must come down the chip counts. Jonathon Karamalikis effectively traded places in the chip counts with Hai Bo Chu by getting all of his chips in with {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs} against Chu's {6-Diamonds} {6-Spades}. The board ran out {6-Hearts} {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} {A-Hearts} {8-Hearts} to make a full house for Chu against Karamalikis' trip aces. Karamalikis is now quite short, with just 12,000 chips. Chu is slightly better off with 35,000.
