Graupner Cracks Chidwick's Aces
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick and Thomas Graupner got all of their chips in the middle preflop with very similar stack sizes.
Thomas Graupner: Q♥Q♦
Stephen Chidwick: A♥A♦
The flop came 6♠3♥3♦ and Chidwick's aces were looking promising. However, the Q♠ on the turn gave Graupner the lead and he held on through the 2♦ on the river. After the stacks were counted, it was Graupner at risk for 104,000 and Chidwick was left with just 1,000 chips after the hand.
