Having folded on the hand in play, Johnny Chan looked up and saw that the projection screen was displaying the 2012 World Series Main Event.

"I look at that, and you know what I'm thinking?" the ten-time bracelet winner said. "I look better now than I did then. I dress better, I'm not as fat... I'm a lean fighting machine."

The hand played out on the screen, Chan flopping a set of nines, but losing when Isaac Baron made a straight on the turn. "There he goes, Hollywooding with the nuts," Chan said, chuckling. "I played it right. That was the only way to play it. And I still made a comeback after that hand."
