Channeling a Double Up

Short-stacked, WSOP bracelet winner and friend of PokerStars Bill Chen recently doubled up to ~4,600 chips, keeping his EPT title hopes alive.

Chen moved all in from under-the-gun holding {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds} and the action folded around the table to the player in the big blind, who studied the situation carefully before committing his chips, tabling a very live {10-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {3-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {10-Spades} in favor of Chen's Big Slick, and the math wiz lives to see another day.
