Chan Hanging Around

[user75032]

Johnny Chan refuses to knuckle under. He recently got a desperate double-up when he was all in preflop against one opponent. Chan was behind in the hand with {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

but had two live cards against his opponent's {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

. A board of {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

{5-Diamonds}

made Chan a pair of nines and the winning hand.

He remains fairly short with about 11,000 chips.
