Chidwick Puts It All on the Line

Level 6 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Stephen Chidwick, who won the 2016 Aussie Millions Poker Championships Event #7: $2,500 8-Game Mixed tournament yesterday, just put his tournament life on the line against Brazil's Yuri Dzivielevski, who has been on a heater as of late.

It happened when Dzivielevski opened for 2,500 from the button and Chidwick just three-bet jammed all in for 30,300 from the big blind. Dzivielevski thought for over a minute before calling, and no doubt regretted it.

Dzivielevski: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Chidwick: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Chidwick was well out in front thanks to his kicker, which is what made the difference after the board ran out a clean {3-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}.
