Chen takes From Krentzman; Chops With Taylor

Level 25 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

In the hijack, James Chen raised to 200,000 and Evan Krentzman called in the big blind. They checked the {9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop and on the {k-Diamonds} turn, Krentzman checked and called a bet of 250,000. Krentzman also checked the {j-Spades} on the river and faced another bet worth 475,000 by Chen, which he eventually called.

Chen tabled {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for two pair and that won the pot.

One hand later, Chen raised to 200,000 and Esther Taylor three-bet the pot for 720,000 on the button. Chen came along to see the {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop and Chen bet the pot, Taylor called all in for 580,000.

Esther Taylor: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
James Chen: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Chen had flopped a flush draw to go with his kings and even turned a second flush draw with the {10-Spades}. However, the {a-Diamonds} river was a blank and they chopped it up.
