Chen Spikes the River to Bust Brewer
Level 21
: 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
With around 3,000,000 in the pot, Chris Brewer and Dong Chen went to the turn on a board of 8?9?6?K?. Brewer then moved all in for 1,500,000 on the button and Chen snap-called in the small blind.
Brewer showed 9?8? for two pair, while Chen had A?K?. The river was the A? and Chen improved to a better two pair to send Brewer to the rail.
"I was really hoping you had ace-king there," Brewer said on his way to collect his payout.
"Nice hand. The hand played itself," tablemate Nick Maimone said to Chen.
"Lucky," Chen replied.
