Sean Winter Eliminated in 8th Place by Stephen Chidwick
It was bound to happen eventually. After cashing in the first five events of the US Poker Open, Sean Winter’s good fortune came to an end just short of the money in Event #6. Stephen Chidwick raised pre-flop to 70,000 on the button and was called by Winter who was seated in the big blind.
The flop came [Ac5h5c] and both players checked. The [5s] appeared on the turn and the small blind checked to Chidwick, who tossed in a bet of 55,000. Winter came along for the ride and they saw a river of [6c]. Winter again checked and Chidwick moved all-in and was snap-called by an inferior hand.
Chidwick: [KhKcTdTc]
Winter: [QsQdAd8s]
We are now officially on the money bubble.
