Level 8
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
We missed the elimination of Poker Hall of Famer Johnny Chan as it happened, but we learned some details after the fact.
According to Sergio Aido, who did the deed, he raised to 2,500 from the button and then called when Chan three-bet to 7,500 from the small blind.
On the two-diamond flop, Chan continued for 10,000 and Aido called to see the turn.
Chan moved all in for his last 15,000 or so and Aido called.
