Fan Fights Back from Brink of Elimination
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Not long ago Terry Fan was on an extreme short stack. While he's still short with less than half the average, he's in much better shape thanks to a recent double.
It happened when action folded to John Chu in the small blind and he simply moved all in to put the pressure on Fan in the big. Fan liked what he saw and called off for 98,000.
Fan:
Chu:
Fan was well out in front, but he had to sweat hearts when the flop gave Chu a flush draw. The turn was safe for Fan, and so was the river. Ship the double to Fan.
