Lichtenberger Takes from Chidwick

Level 4 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Andrew Lichtenberger raised to 11,000 in early position, which Brandon Wilson called in the cutoff. Stephen Chidwick then three-bet to 55,000 in the small blind, which saw Lichtenberger respond with a four-bet shove for 232,500. Wilson folded, but Chidwick snap-called.

Andrew Lichtenberger: JJ All in
Stephen Chidwick: 99

There was little for Lichtenberger to sweat on the Q47410 runout, seeing him double through the chip leader.
