Zhen Chen Eliminated in 4th Place ($60,070)

Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Georgios Skarparis made it 1,200,000 from under the gun and Zhen Chen defended his big blind.
They went to a flop of 2?K?K? where Chen checked, Skarparis bet 1,500,000, and Chen called,
On the 9? turn, Chen checked it over again, then Skarparis fired out 4,500,000. After using three time banks, Chen shoved for around 9,500,000. Skarparis snap-called.
Zhen Chen: Q?9?
Georgios Skarparis: K?10?
Chen had a pair and a flush draw, and needed to connect with the latter in order to stay alive as Skarparis had trips. All eyes were locked on the river as the dealer burned and turned the 2?, which meant Chen was out in 4th.
Wow!
