Easy Squeezy for Chen
Proving that it’s not just high roller events he’s good at Taiwan’s James Chen is stacking up pretty well in the Main Event and has just added some more ammunition to his chip arsenal.
Pre-flop it was France’s Ivan Deyra who kick-started the action with an early position raise to 1,800. Billy ‘the Croc’ Argyros tossed in the call before James Chen peeked down at his hole cards and then squeezed to 6,000 in total.
Deyra looked suspicious and made the call and after some deliberation so did the Croc and we go three-way to a flop of 
.
This brought checks from both Deyra and Argyros and Chen continued to sell the story of a strong hand with a bet of 11,500. That’s enough to get Deyra to give it up quickly but the Croc mulled it over for a bit.
“I guess you’ve got it, nice hand,” said Argyros, sliding his cards face down into the muck, leaving Chen to scoop a juicy pot.
