: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
James Chen faced a raise to 9,000 by Tom Alner and three-bet to 25,000, which Alner then met with a reraise to 69,000. Chen called and the flop fell 
. Alner checked and subsequently called a bet worth 35,000 by Chen before checking again on the 
turn.
Chen now made it 76,000 to go and Alner eventually moved all in for 99,500 in total. Chen was surprised for a second and asked how much more he had to call, then said "I guess you must have it," and called.
Tom Alner: 
James Chen: 
The 
on the river was a blank and Alner was eliminated. In table chat, Chen said "I play with him a lot, and he knows that I bluff here often." Two-times Red Dragon champion Alner joined the rail, while Chen boosted his stack to more than 600,000 as a result.
