Chidwick Takes Phan's First Bullet
Level 7
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick opened to 10,000 from the hijack and Hoang Phan shoved for 14,000 from the big blind. Chidwick called to put Phan at risk.
Hoang Phan: A?Q? 
Stephen Chidwick: K?J?
Chidwick took the lead with top pair on the K?6?5? flop and remained ahead when the rest of the board ran out Q?2? to send Phan to the rail and take the pot.
Shortly after the hand took place, Phan opted to reenter with a fresh stack of 500,000. Sirzat Hissou also followed close behind with a brand new starting stack of his own.
