William Stevenson Doubles Through Tommy Chen

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Tommy Chen limped on the button and William Stevenson went all in for 308,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded and Chen quickly called.

Chen: {A-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Stevenson: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop gave Chen the lead with a pair of aces, but the {4-Diamonds} turn gave Stevenson the flush draw, which he hit on the {10-Diamonds} river to double up.

"I didn't even see that," Stevenson said as he was already standing up, ready to exit.

"I did, but I didn't want to," was Chen's reply.
