Chidwick Near Felted, Doubles to Merely Short; Still Finishes 6th for $63,000
A big flip sent Stephen Chidwick down to a felt-brushing stack, his [QdQc] all in preflop after Aaron Van Blarcum three-bet his original raise to 230,000 all in with [AhKs] – to a total of 1,440,000. The board brought help for Van Blarcum: [Ac7h7dJsJc] and he doubled through.
Moments later Chidwick’s last 235,000 was all in preflop with his own [AcKs], called by John Cynn with [Tc8s]. Chidwick stayed ahead over the [9h9dQhJsAh] run out to keep this final six handed, but only momentarily. The high roller veteran leaves the table in 6th, winning $63,000.
