Chips for Chan As Shih Slips

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Ruben Visser raised to 85,000 from the hijack seat, then Feming Chan made it 215,000 from one seat over. It folded to Kenny Shih in the small blind who tanked, then announced he was all in. The big blind got out, and Visser quickly folded as well. After thinking a few moments, Chan -- covered by Shih -- made the call with his remaining chips.

Shih showed {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and Chan {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}. The race was on.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}, and Shih remained ahead. But the {A-Hearts} landed on the turn, giving the advantage to Chan. The river was the {8-Diamonds}, and Chan doubled to about 2.45 million. Shih is left with about 640,000.
