Not a Good Day for Chui
Hazel Chui has not long hit the rail and we convinced her to tell us her tale of woe, and it was actually a sad story of loss and heartbreak, well of loss at any rate.
Sometimes things just don’t go your way in a tournament and Chui played a grand total of three hands; ace-jack, ace-king and the following hand.
Chui had had to fold her first two hands and had dropped to 5,500 of her 15,000 starting stack, opening the action with a raise to 600 from middle position and finding a caller in the big blind.
The action went heads-up to a flop of 
and Chui played it slow and checked behind the big blind and the dealer burned and turned the 
turn. This saw the big blind lead for around 700 and now Chui raised it up to 1,925, which was called.
The 
river saw the big blind lead for close to pot, which was enough to cover Chui and she called off the last of her chips to find out some depressing news. The big blind rolled over the mighty 
for a rivered two pair to take the hand and send Chui to the rail.
