Chan Doubles Before Dinner

On the last hand before dinner, two-time World Series of Poker Main Event winner Johnny Chan was all in and at risk holding {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} on a board of {5-Clubs}{6-Spades}{9-Clubs}. His opponent tabled {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a flush draw, and turn and river bricked {2-Diamonds}, {k-Spades} respectively.

Chan heads to dinner with just under 100,000 chips.
