Shi Chen Eliminated in 25th Place ($18,586)
Level 29
: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Shaun Deeb opened to 200,000 for the second time in two hands and Patrick Eskandar moved all in for the second time too.
It folded round to Shi Chen in the big blind who called all in. Deeb let it go and the two players turned over their cards.
Patrick Eskandar:
Shi Chen:
There was an ace in the window on the board, giving Eskandar a set. A turn gave Chen a set and he was looking for either a spade that did not pair the board, or the case queen to stay alive. The river was the instead though and Chen headed towards the payouts desk, while Eskandar started to stack his newly acquired chips.
