Chen Eliminated by Epstein After Momentary Confusion
Nível 10
: 0/0, 1,500 ante
On a 
flop Alex Epstein checked to James Chen who bet 5,000. Epstein check-raised to 20,000 and Chen re-raised all in for around 35,000. Epstein called.
James Chen: 
Alex Epstein: 
The turn was the 
and the river 
gave Chen two pair. Epstein let out a frustrated noise and the pot was awarded to Chen. However, before the next hand the players at the table realised that Epstein had in fact rivered a straight, with his ace doubling as the bottom end of a nine-high straight.
The floor was called and the pot was awarded in Epstein's favour sending Chen to the rail.
