Chen Puts Keating In the Blender
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Alex Keating raised from the hijack and James Chen defended in the big blind.
Chen elected to check-call a bet of 3,000 from Keating on the A?6?8? flop.
The J? turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Keating sized up to 14,000.
The 10? river saw Chen play out of flow, leading for 30,000. Keating went deep into the tank, thinking for some time before finally making the call.
Chen tabled J?8? for two pair, which was enough to send Keating's cards into the muck.
