Zhining Chen in the cutoff raises it up to 1,800 and Toshiyuki Watanabe (pictured above) three-bets to 5,500 on the button, which Chen calls. After a Club KClub 8Heart 5 flop, Chen check-raises to 30,000 and Watanabe moves all in for slightly more to create the following showdown.

Zhining Chen: Spade 7Spade 6

“Aces again?” Chen sighs when the cards are turned over, yet Watanabe is instantly drawing dead on the Spade 9 turn to make the Spade 5 river a formality.

Zhining Chen – 90,000
Toshiyuki Watanabe – Eliminated
