Benny Chen Chases One Off

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

With one of the biggest stacks left in the Amazon Room's Tan section, Benny Chen is playing power poker to perfection.

On a flop of {5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}, the small blind led out for 34,000 and Chen flatted to see the turn. After the {7-Spades} arrived, Chen's opponent continued again, this time for 40,000. After a moment of thought, Chen announced himself all-in, effectively forcing the smaller stack to a test for his tournament life.

This pressure proved to be too intense, and the player mucked his cards, sending yet another pot in Chen's direction.
