Chidwick Down to a Single Chip, Then None

Stephen Chidwick
Stephen Chidwick

And it's not a 25k one either. He got busy preflop right from the start but was repopped first by the small blind when he had the button (he passed) and then by Filipa Cerqueira in the small blind who raised his 11k to 24k. Back to Chidwick who thought for a while, before finally pushing in 74k (he had 37k behind). When Cerqueira, after quite a think (and a sip of juice and self-count) moved in, he called her immediately as expected and showed {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} to her {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. She stood up as the board ran out {2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{K-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, allowing herself a single loud clap and a shout of something that sounded like, "BammmBA!" as she doubled up, leaving Chidwick with one black 100 chip.

That went in next hand and was isolated by Joe Ebanks' shove - Chidwick's {4-}{6-} faced off against {J-}{Q-}. A little excitement courtesy of the {3-}{J-}{5-} flop but no straight came in and there followed his exit.
