Matloubi Doubles Through Chen
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Mansour Matloubi raised to 7,000 from under the gun and Pete Chen three-bet to 18,000 from two seats over. The action folded back to Matloubi and he moved all in for 69,000, which Chen quickly called.
Mansour Matloubi: 
Pete Chen: 
On the 
flop, Chen asked for diamonds, but he was drawing dead to win the pot as soon as the 
turn hit the felt. This made the 
river a sheer formality and Chen had to forfeit half of his stack.
