Chiu Loses Blind War

In a battle of the blinds on a flop of {10-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs} the player in the small blind pushed his last 1,750 chips into the pot. David Chiu made the call in the big blind and tabled {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} to hold the lead against his opponent's {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Needing to dodge a club and a four, Chiu watched and the {K-Spades} hit the turn before the {7-Clubs} fell on the river to double up his opponent as Chiu slipped to around 3,900.
