Tan Loses Final Race Of The Day

[user67765]

After folding pocket eights to a preflop all in a few moments earlier, Ivan Tan was faced with the same situation but looked down at {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

and made a quick call. He found himself up against {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Spades}

in a huge race on the final hand of the day.

Tan called for "no ace, no king!" but the board landed {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{7-Hearts}

giving his opponent the bigger pair and a double up. Tan will end the day ruing a missed opportunity to be amongst the chip leader as instead he bags up only around 10,000 worth of chips.
