Not So Lucky Chewey

Andrew Lichtenberger on Day 2.
Andrew Lichtenberger on Day 2.

Andrew "LuckyChewy" Lichtenberger raised to 7,500 from under the gun and cleared the field all the way to Michael Gable, who made the call from the small blind. After the big got out of the way, it was heads-up action to the {K-Clubs}{9-Spades}{Q-Spades}, which saw Gable check-call a bet of 12,000.

Lichtenberger then fired out 25,500 on the {9-Hearts} turn after Gable had checked, but again a call was made. Gable checked for a third time on the {7-Hearts} river, and snap-called when Lichtenberger bet a healthy 69,300. Gable showed {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for top two pair, and it was good enough to win the hand.
