Just Two Pair For Chidwick

While we discovered that one of the biggest stacks in the room belongs to Kyle Bowker we also saw Stephen Chidwick win a small pot.

Omaha Eight of Better

On a {K-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop Marco Traniello opted to check from the small blind after which Chidwick bet 1,000 from the big. Bowker called in late position after which Traniello called as well.

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and once again both Traniello and Bowker called Chidwick's bet. The river was the {9-Hearts} and this made sure there wasn't a low possible. All three players checked, and Chidwick's small two pair with {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs} turned out to be the best hand.

Bowker is still doing very well with 66,000 chips while Chidwick chases another cash. He already cashed in three events with a third place in the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. being his best. He ended up taking home $112,106 for his third place in that event.
