Chidwick Doubles and Gets Some Extra
Level 13
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Santhosh Suvarna limped-called from the small blind after Stephen Chidwick raised in the big blind.
On the 5♠5♥2♥ flop, Suvarna check-jammed as the bigger stack after Chidwick continued for 21,000. With 100,000 behind, Chidwick called for his tournament life.
Stephen Chidwick: A♥K♦
Santhosh Suvarna: Q♥10♥
Chidwick was ahead but Suvarna had plenty of outs to eliminate the Englishman. However, the 9♠ turn and A♠ river kept Chidwick ahead to double up.
Chidwick then added more to his stack when Mikalai Vaskaboinikau folded his big blind after Chidwick jammed.
