Chen Scoops Two Back

Omaha-8

Bill Chen has, for the moment, put a halt to Phil Ivey's relentless march on Chen's chip stack. Chen called from the big blind after Ivey raised the button, then check-called the flop and turn. The river was checked by both players. With the board showing {q-Spades} {7-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {4-Clubs}, Chen opened {a-Spades} {6-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} to make an ace-six low and a pair of sevens. Both were good.

The next hand Chen scooped again, calling the flop and turn and betting the river, when his {5-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {8-Clubs} was best both ways on a board of {8-Diamonds} {j-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {a-Hearts} {a-Diamonds}.

Scooping those two pots has pushed Chen back up to about 1.5 million.
