Chidwick Busts Yu and Soverel
Ben Yu raised under the gun. Sam Soverel put his last 5,000 in the pot and Stephen Chidwick called in the cutoff. Sean Winter called in the small blind and Cary Katz called in the big blind as well.
The flop was and action checked to Chidwick who continued with a bet of 75,000. Winter and Katz folded quickly, but Yu called to see a turn.
The turn was the and Yu checked again. Chidwick made it 100,000 and Yu decided to call.
On the river, Yu checked for a third time. Chidwick now bet 200,000 which was enough to put Yu all in. Yu thought for a good while, thinking through his two final time extension chips and finally he landed on a call.
Chidwick turned up for quad meaning that Yu's , for a full house, and Soverel's , also a full house, were both inferior. Chidwick took down the pot knocking out two players and he moved over 1.5 million in chips.
