Montgomery Ousts Chan

Scott Montgomery has just eliminated Terrence Chan from the tournament after making a bold call on the turn with the board showing {9-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {A-Hearts} holding a meager pocket pair of sixes. Chan had shoved with {7-Hearts} {4-Hearts}, drawing to a heart for a flush or a six for a straight.

The river blanked out ({8-Spades}) and Chan become one of the early casualties of the first round.
