Chan Dodges Bullets

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

We arrived to see Justin Chan in action once more, this time in a hand against Fat Cheong Wong. We picked up the action on the turn with close to 9,000 in blinds and antes already in the middle with the community cards spread {j-Clubs}{2-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{k-Spades} just as Wong checked the action over to Chan.

Chan thought it over for several seconds before deciding the right amount to bet was 6,000, which Wong called.

The {10-Spades} river completed four to a straight and a possible backdoor spade draw and Wong quickly moved all-in for his last 18,700.

This sent Chan deep into the tank, where he remained muttering to himself for a while before counting out the call and checking how much he would have left behind should he call and lose (9,200).

Eventually, Chan slammed down the call and the cards were turned over. Wong showed {a-Clubs}{a-Spades} for the rivered straight and Chan rolled over {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for a chop. The irony of the situation was not lost on the two players, who shared a chuckle as the pot was divvied up.
