Chidwick Can't Get There This Time

Level 11 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick came into the day on a fresh stack of 150,000 and had his work cut out for him to run up a stack. Keith Tilston raised it up on the button and Chidwick shipped all in for his last 116,000 out of the big blind. Tilston quickly made the call and the cards were on their backs.

Keith Tilston: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Stephen Chidwick: {a-Hearts}{5-Spades}

Chidwick was in a dominated position and would need some serious help in order to stay alive. The board ran out {k-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Chidwick's Main Event run came to an end. Although he was unable to lock up some more money, Chidwick will still be crowned the US Poker Open Champion.
