![](https://storage.googleapis.com/pokercentral/Stephen-Chidwick_AmatoDSC_4356.jpg)
Stephen Chidwick raised from under the gun and Rick Salomon called from the cutoff. Alex Foxen three-bet out of the big blind and was called by both Chidwick and Salomon. The flop was [tc][8s][4c] and Foxen checked. There was about 125,000 in the pot and Chidwick bet 42,000.
Salomon raised to 142,000, Foxen folded and Chidwick called. The turn was the [3s] and Chidwick checked. Salomon moved all in and Chidwick called.
It was the biggest pot of the tournament thus far with Chidwick tabling [ts][9s], good for top pair and a flush draw, against Salomon’s [9c][6c], giving him a gutshot and a different flush draw. Chidwick was the player at risk for his last 392,000, but it was nearly all of Salomon’s stack.
Salomon needed a club or a non-spade eight to win the pot, move back into the chip lead and eliminate Chidwick, but the the [4d] came on the river sent the pot to Chidwick. Salomon was left with just a few big blinds and Chidwick moved into the chip lead.

INSIDERS on PokerGO: Get to Know Seth Davies
Earlier this year, Poker Central partnered with CakeWorks to produce a new documentary series INSIDERS: Super High Roller Bowl 2018. The seven-part series is produced in collaboration with Emmy-winning producer, Jesse Cook, known for his work on the SHOWTIME original series, “All Access.”
On INSIDERS, Daniel Negreanu, Brandon Adams, and Seth Davies were followed in their preparation for the Super High Roller Bowl. The three top pros showed their study methods, physical preparations, some leisurely fun to unwind as well as a rundown of their actual play in the event.
While Negreanu and Adams have been on the international poker scene for many years, the name Seth Davies will not immediately ring a bell with the casual fan. That changed with INSIDERs which you can now binge-watch on PokerGO.
Watch the first episode of the show in the player below.
Day 2 live streaming of Super High Roller Bowl V is now live on PokerGO. Poker Central will have live updates right here in sync with the stream and you can watch the action using your PokerGO subscription.
