Booth Boosting His Stack
Level 2
: 75/150, 25 ante
Doug Booth raised from the hijack only to have Yan Chen re-raise to 1,650. Booth then made it 4,000 to go and Chen re-raised all in for around 9,000. Booth called and both players stood pat. Booth revealed the and Chen mucked his hand and was left with 10,000 (plus one add-on chip). Booth's stack grew to 25,000 (plus two add-on chips).
We expect to see a lot of big moves from both these players today as Booth finished in 5th place in this event last year and Chen won a bracelet in the $1,500 NL 2-7 Draw event last year.
