Stephen Chidwick was down to as low as 3,000 in chips, and this tournament didn't look like it was going to work out for the young British grinder. Despite some rather unfortunate run outs of the cards and pots that he watched get pushed the other way, Chidwick hasn't given up yet. In fact, he's worked his stack back into the black with 35,000 in chips.
Here are two recent hands involving Chidwick:
Bill Chen: (X-X) / / (X)
Chidwick: (X-X) / / (X)
Perry Friedman: (X-X) / / (X)
On this first hand, Chidwick led with a bet on fourth street, Friedman called, and Chen called. On fifth, Chidwick led again, Friedman called, and Chen called.
On sixth street, Chidwick bet out, Friedman raised, Chen called, and then Chidwick reraised. Friedman had 1,200 behind and called all in for 4,400 total, then Chen called to close the action.
With 800 in the side pot between Chen and Chidwick, the dealer pitched out seventh street to all three players. Chidwick bet, and Chen folded. Chidwick showed for a six smooth. Friedman showed and was eliminated from the tournament.
Chidwick won that pot, and Chen lost it, but on the next hand it would be Chen taking some chips back from his table mate.
Chen: (X-X) / / (X)
Chidwick: (X-X) / / (X)
Picking up the action in this hand on fourth street, Chidwick bet, and Chen called. Then on fifth street, the same action occurred before Chen took the lead on sixth street after Chidwick paired up. He led out there, and Chidwick called to head to seventh.
After the final card, both players checked.
Chen showed a nine with , and Chidwick mucked his hand.
As a result of all of this, with Friedman being eliminated, Chidwick sat on 35,000 and Chen ended with 61,500.

Nine-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner Phil Ivey began the day chasing that 10th piece of WSOP hardware and moving in the right direction. He was up over 50,000 in chips early, but has since fallen back below starting stack. After losing this recent pot to Yuval Bronshtein where he couldn't beat a six, Ivey dropped back to just 12,000 in chips.
Ivey: (X-X) / / (X)
Scott Seiver: (X-X) / — fold
Bronshtein: (X-X) / / (X)
Picking up the action on fourth street, Ivey led with a bet, and both of his opponents made the call to see fifth street. After the dealer pitched the next card, Ivey bet, Seiver folded, and Bronshtein called. After sixth street, Ivey fired another bet, and Bronshtein called.
"Give me a dark bet one time," said Bronshtein as the dealer burned before tossing each player his seventh street card. Ivey didn't react, nor did he fire a bet in the dark.
After seventh was received face down, Ivey checked, Bronshtein bet, and Ivey tank-called.
"Six," said Bronshtein, as he turned over .
Ivey couldn't beat it, and his hand hit the muck without display. Bronshtein moved to 82,000 in chips.
