Chen Picks Off Eveslage
Level 2
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Chad Eveslage opened to 3,500 from the cutoff, then called after James Chen three-bet to 17,000 out of the small blind.
Chen led out for 14,000 following the 8♣K♥9♥ flop, receiving a call from Eveslage.
The Q♠ turn saw Chen check, prompting Eveslage to fire off 22,000. Chen made the call to see a river.
Chen checked once more on the 2♥ river. Eveslage opted to move almost his entire stack into the middle, leaving himself just 500 behind. It did not take long for Chen to call with Eveslage instantly mucking to send the mammoth pot over to his opponent.
Eveslage was eliminated a couple of hands later.
