Stephen Chidwick was involved in a pot with Nacho Barbero. Barbero checked from the big blind on a board of 2♣A♦K♠Q♠ and Chidwick put a 150,000 bet in the pot of 160,000. Barbero made the call and the 4♠ river completed the board.
Chidwick checked behind once Barbero had done so first, and Barbero tabled A♥7♠ for top pair. Chidwick hat that beat with his A♣2♠ for two pair, and raked in the sizable pot.
One hand later, Gab Yong Kim raised from middle position and Chidwick three-bet to 50,000. The action folded back to Kim, who called. The flop was then dealt Q♣J♠5♥ and Kim check-folded to a continuation-bet of Chidwick, leaving himself as the shortest stack in the tournament.
