Bien Chips Up Without Showdown; Abdulla Joins the Leaders
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Ceesvin Abdulla in early position, Hamish Crawshaw in the cutoff and Mai Bien out of the small blind invested 6,000 chips each to see a flop of 
go check, check. On the 
turn, Bien bet 12,400 and received two folds.
Abdulla remained a big stack after this hand and then not only made up for the losses but pulled further ahead when he knocked out Ngoc Anh Cao. According to Abdulla, he three-bet out of the big blind and Cao just called. They checked the 
flop and Cao bet the 
turn for 7,000 to receive a call.
Cao then jammed the 
river with aces and Abdulla called with jacks for the rivered set.
