Chen Eliminated by Rheem
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
James Chen was seen jamming his last 110,000 on the 9♣5♣2♣ and Chino Rheem tank-called.
James Chen (US): A♦J♣8♣4♦
Chino Rheem: Q♠Q♣6♣5♠
Both players flopped a flush but Rheem had the best hand with the queen-high flush. The J♠ turn and 4♥ river were no help for Chen as he left the table.
George Abdallah yelled at Rheem, "I've never seen someone tank so long with the second nuts."
Rheem replied, "Well I had to give him credit, I thought he had it. He just won a bracelet!"
