Stephanie Chung

Stephanie Chung and Carey Pickus played two pots against each other in Big O, the first had Pickus all in and Chung had her at risk.

Pickus: As7s7d3h2d
Chung: AhKc8s4d2s

Pickus was ahead and the sevens turned into a full house on the 9h9c6c9dTs board with no low to give her the full double.

Chung was left low, opened to 24,000 from under the gun and Pickus potted to 96,000 next to act. The rest of the table folded and Chung called all in while thanking Pickus for the protection.

Pickus: AdJh7c3d2c
Chung: 6h5h5s3s2s

Chung was ahead but Pickus made aces up on the AsKsKh flop. The Qc turn and 2d river finished the board to send Chung out in 15th place.

Carey Pickus – 165,000 (21 bb)
Stephanie Chung – Eliminated in 15th Place ($850)
