Hands #44-47: Chidwick Hits Downhill

Level 19 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Hand #44: Jake Schindler raised to 50,000 with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Stephen Chidwick picked up {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} on the button. Chidwick flatted and they went to the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} flop. Schindler opted to check his open-ended straight draw and Chidwick checked back. The {8-Diamonds} hit the turn and Schindler placed in a delayed continuation bet worth 90,000. Chidwick called. The river bricked with the {5-Clubs} and Schindler stepped on the gas, betting 240,000. That was enough to convince Chidwick to fold the best hand.

Hand #45: Keith Tilston ({A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}) made it 60,000 and small blind Daniel Negreanu ({K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}) three-bet to 225,000. Tilston wasn't interested in battling against the second-biggest stack and let it go.

Hand #46: Chidwick found {K-Spades}{J-Spades} and raised to 50,000. Tilston called from the big blind with {A-Spades}{9-Clubs}. The {J-Hearts}{8-Spades}{A-Diamonds} flop brought a check from Tilston and Chidwick kept his bettling lead, continuing for 75,000. Tilston smooth-called.

The {8-Hearts} turn paired the board and Tilston checked again. Chidwick also repeated his move from the previous street, firing 75,000 again. Tilston had no problem, calling.

Tilston checked the {A-Hearts} river and Chidwick quickly checked back, prompting a showdown from Tilston who turned up his full house.

Hand #47: Schindler opened the button to 60,000 with a pair of jacks, earning a call from big blind Chidwick who had {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Both players checked the flop and turn of the {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{A-Spades} board and Chidwick tapped the river as well. Schindler then bet out 100,000 but Chidwick wasn't willing to match his bid.
