"Skill is a Scam"; Fei Doubles Twice
Immediately after knocking out David Williams, Kevin Eyster called Wesley Fei's shove for 2,100,000 to put him at risk.
Wesley Fei: A?10?
Kevin Eyster: A?9?
"Agh, nice hand, Wesley," Eyster said when he saw he was dominated.
"Yes! Ace-ten-ten flop!" Fei shouted.
The dealer partially listened, as the flop came out 3?K?10? to give Fei a pair of tens to take a big lead.
"Yes, you are drawing dead!" Fei continued, and the 3? on the turn really did leave Eyster dead while the Q? completed the board to award him the double-up.
A few hands later, Pete Chen opened to 420,000 and Fei ripped all in for 4,000,000 and Chen shook his head and made the call.
Wesley Fei: A?K?
Pete Chen: A?Q?
"Let's GOOO!" Fei screamed as he realized he had Chen crushed.
The board ran out 5?4?3?3?9? for Fei to score yet another massive double-up to make him the dominant chip leader.
"Skill is a scam! Poker is all about energy!" he proclaimed as he raked in the huge pot.
