Edmund Chan Eliminates Two Players

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Kenneth Ray moved all in for his last 147,000 chips from under the gun. It folded to Edmund Chan on the button who flatted. Tomas Soderstrom then reraised all in over the top for 338,000 and Chan called as well, putting two players at risk.

Ray: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Chan: {q-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Soderstrom: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Ray's rail was buoyant at their player showing pocket aces, and were even louder once the relatively safe {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop was dealt.

The turn was the {5-Clubs}, sending Ray closer to a double up-and Soderstrom even closer to the rail. However, the {k-Diamonds} on the river gave Chan trips and he eliminated two players.
