Chidwick Hits The Rail on Day 2

Stephen Chidwick is one of the world's top poker players and was coming off a deep run in last year's WSOP Main Event. However, if he was your pick to win it all this year, his run in this year's Main Event just came to an end.

On a board reading {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Spades}{k-Hearts}, there was a little over 15,000 chips in the middle with Zilong Zhang and Chidwick heads-up in a pot. Zhang checked to Chidwick who threw in a bet only to have Zhang shove all in.

Chidwick gave it some thought and eventually called off his stack of around 60,000 chips. Zhang turned over {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for two pair while Chidwick showed {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. The river was the {6-Spades} and Zhang's two pair held up to eliminate Chidwick on the first level of Day 2.
