Chen Chips Up

PLH

Action folded around to Bill Chen in the hijack who raised to 500. The player in the big blind thought for a minute before deciding to re-raise to 1,800 which Chen then called.

Both players checked after the flop of {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} and again after the {5-Hearts} came on the turn. The river brought the {k-Diamonds} and the big blind checked a third time but Chen then put out a bet of 1,500. The big blind opted to call but mucked his hand after Chen showed his {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for a Broadway straight.

Chen's stack is now at an impressive 33,000.
