Chen Makes a Big Call

Andrew Alan Chen raises preflop and Alexiou Konstantinos calls. Chen bets 120,000 on a {Q-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {5-Spades} flop and the Konstantinos calls. With the pot swelling to over 500,000, both check the {3-Spades} turn before Konstantinos bets 215,000 on the river {7-Clubs}.

Chen looks pained and really thinks long and hard before calling, and Konstantinos shows {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} for a missed straight-flush draw. Chen flips {A-Clubs} {6-Clubs} for only ace high, but it's good enough for a big pot.

Konstantinos must be rueing not getting aggressive on the flop.
