Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Zhong Chen raised to 32,000 from under the gun and Kalle Persson three-bet to 100,000 from the button. The blinds ducked out of the way and Chen called.
The flop was 
and Chen checked. Persson continued for 80,000 and after a few moments of consideration, Chen tossed his hand in the muck.
Persson is chipping up today, having nearly tripled his Day 2 starting stack.
Elsewhere at the table, Meir Avigal is moved back slightly, but still sits with nearly 800,000.
