Cotescu and Chen Both Over a Million

Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Both Sandra Cotescu and Zhen Chen have chip stacks that sit north of a million, and both just played a small pot together.
Cotescu had raised from early position to 18,000 and Zhen Chen called from the next seat over.
They saw a flop of Q?A?9?, which went check-check to the A? turn. Cotescu checked, Chen bet 58,000, and Cotescu quickly folded.
Perhaps they are playing it safe against each other, but those two are among the big stacks in the room as the final break of the night approaches.
