Chiu Has Got Some Skills

Limit Hold'em:

Just before the level up, four players limped to see a flop of {3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{J-Spades} and the small blind led out for 4,000. The big blind and cutoff both folded, while a short-stacked David Chiu raised to 8,000, leaving himself a single yellow T1,000 chip behind. The small blind put in the three-bet and Chiu called off.

"You got a jack?" Chiu asked. Sure enough, the small blind did.

Showdown

Small Blind{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Chiu{K-Spades}{6-Spades}

"Short stacked," Chiu explained as the {7-Hearts} appeared on the turn. In order to survive he needed either a king or six on the river, and wouldn't you know it, the {K-Hearts} spiked.

"Skills," Chiu said with a smile as he was pushed the pot.
