Event 14 (Day 2): Chinni Fades To Win

Level 14 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/300)
Players Remaining: 23
Chip Average: 109,000

Jessi Chinni would open the action at Table 29 with a min-raise to 4,000.  Action would fold around to Rafael Saadah in the small blind, and he'd be the only player to come along.  The dealer would fan out a flop of 6♣ 5♠ 3♣, and Rafael would check to Chinni.  Jesse would put out a bet of 6,000, with Saadah check raising to 12,000.  Chinni would follow with a three-bet to 27,000, and Rafael wouldn't take much time before announcing himself all-in.  Jesse would make the call and he'd be the player at risk:

Chinni: K♠ K          Saadah: K♣ Q♣

Flop: 6♣ 5♠ 3♣

Turn: 8

River: 9

Jesse would fade Saadah's club outs and win the pot worth 160,000.  After absorbing the loss in that hand, Rafael is left with 30,000 (15 big blinds).
