Chen Pushes the River

If anybody has the ability to snap this final table out of its funk, it's Daoxing Chen. He raised preflop and was called by small blind Darkhan Botabayev. Each player checked the {K-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {2-Spades} flop. On the turn {6-Diamonds}, Botabayev bet 200,000 and Chen called.

The river fell {3-Hearts}. Botabayev slowed down and checked, prompting Chen to stand and dramatically declare all in. Botabayev couldn't muck fast enough, to the delight of Botabayev's supporters in the gallery.
