Chiu Helps to Triple Up Short Stack

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante
David Chiu
David Chiu

David Chiu made it 300 preflop and was called by the short stack of the table. Another player in late position three-bet the action to 1,350 total. Chiu made the call and the short stack moved all in for 1,175 total.

The flop fell {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Chiu checked. His opponent moved all in and Chiu mucked his cards. The two players left in the hand turns up their hands:

Player 1: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Player 2: (all in): {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}{J-Hearts}

The turn and river came {8-}{J-} and the short stack made a full house, eights full of jacks, to triple up back to around starting stack of 4,500. This hand knocked Chiu down to roughly 4,500 as well.
