Chidwick, Tollerene Take Small Ones
Cary Katz opened to 12,000 and Stephen Chidwick called in the cutoff before Sam Soverel completed his big blind.
All three checked the [Ts9s5h] flop and they checked again after the [6d] fell on the turn.
The [5s] completed the board and after Soverel checked, Katz bet 19,000.
Chidwick called and Soverel instantly released. Katz tabled [KxQx] and Chidwick won the pot with [Ah9h].
A few hands later, Soverel was involved in another pot with Ben Tollerene. That action was picked up with Soverel leading for 9,000 after the [Qs6s5d] flop.
Tollerene called and Soverel check-called 15,000 after the [Jd] fell on the turn.
The [7c] completed the board and after Soverel checked, Tollerene used a time extension. He eventually bet 65,000 and Soverel folded to drop below the chip average.
