Daoxing Chen Eliminated in 3rd Place ($239,327)

Daoxing Chen - 3rd Place
Daoxing Chen - 3rd Place
Dermot Blain raised to 220,000 from the button and Daoxing Chen again made the call as these two foes once again clashed.

They took a flop of {3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{A-Clubs} and Chen checked to Blain who fired 350,000. Chen then cut out a raise, similar to the last hand, but there was no foxing this time around as he slid out a raise to 1,050,000.

The action was back with Blain who after a moment or two of thought, declared himself all in with Chen quickly calling.

Blain: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Chen: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

Kicker troubles for Chen as he was looking for one of the three remaining queens to stay alive. The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and the river the {A-Spades} and Chen is eliminated much to the disappointment of the throngs of locals who turned out this afternoon to cheer their hero home.

Chen departed to a nice round of applause and $239,327 in prize money.
