Chin Eliminated With Two Unlucky Loses Back-to-Back
Michelle Chin bet out for 1,200 from early position on the flop 5?A?4? and got raised to 3,000 by Nancy Birnbaum on her direct left. Chin called the raise.
The turn came the K?. Chin checked and Birnbaum bet out 7,700. After taking some time to think, Chin called. The river was the 6?. Chin now led out for three red chips or 15,000 total, putting her opponent all in. Birnbaum snap-called.
Chin turned over 8?7? for the flush, which was no good, as Birnbaum had A?4? for the nut flush and the double-up.
Chin had just around 7,000 chips left after the hand and was under the gun the very next hand. She accidentally said: "I call", then corrected to raise, but her first action counted. Sigrid Dencker was in middle position and raised to over 2,000 chips. After action folded back to Chin, she went all in and Dencker called.
Michelle Chin: K?K?
Sigrid Dencker: Q?Q?
Chin was at risk but ahead, and remained so on the 7?A?10? flop and the 4? turn. However, on the river, a two-outer, the Q?, rolled off, capping off Chin's short but extreme run of bad luck.
