Andrew Chen Eliminated in 5th Place ($61,063)

Andrew Chen - 5th Place
Andrew Chen - 5th Place
Andrew Chen and Ryan Fee got tangled up in a big way preflop, resulting in all of Chen's 325,000 chips going into the middle. He was matched by Fee, putting a pot of over 650,000 chips on the line! With no further betting action, and Chen at risk, the hands were tabled.

Showdown:
Chen: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Fee: {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs}

The flop was a good miss for Fee as it rolled out {5-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {6-Clubs}. Chen hated it, and began to back away from the table, shaking his head.

As if he knew what was coming, Chen watched the dealer turn the {7-Diamonds}, making Fee's straight. Chen could only stay alive with one of the two remaining eights for a chop. The river was a useless {6-Spades} though, and Andrew Chen became just another notch on Ryan Fee's belt.

Emcee Humberto Brenes went over to Andrew Chen to offer some consolation, as the newly-eliminated player was clearly dejected. Hopefully picking up a check for more than $60,000 will do a little bit for the pain.
