Aces Hold for Chung
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Phil Chung and his opponent in the hijack managed to get all their chips in the middle halfway through Level 1 on Day 1 of the Main Event. The hands they turned over were predictable enough.
Phil Chung: A♥A♦
Hijack: K♣K♦
Chung was the player at risk, though looking reasonably safe on a flop of 10♦Q♦2♦. A 9♥ on the turn created a slight sweat but that was soon extinguished when the dealer peeled a 10♣ on the river.
