Stephen Chidwick was in early position and he cut out a raise to 8,500. Action came around to Devin Looney in the cutoff and he three-bet to 19,500. Action folded back to Chidwick who shipped all in over the top for 173,000. Looney went into the tank for some time before dropping forward a call.
Chidwick: 
Looney: 
The two were racing for Chidwick's tournament life heading to the flop. The dealer fanned 
, giving Looney top pair but Chidwick the lead with a set of sixes. Looney found no help on the turn (
) or the river (
) and he was forced to ship a majority of his chips over to Chidwick. Chidwick is now sitting pretty with the chip lead of 359,000.
