Chan Takes a Big Pot Off Cabret

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

Joseph Cabret, who was in the big blind, checked a flop of {6-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Hearts} and opened the door for Mervin Chan, who was under the gun, to bet 70,000. Jay Tan folded from the button, Cabret called, and the dealer burned and turned the {10-Diamonds}. Cabret checked, Chan bet 155,000, and then Cabret woke up with a check-raise to 430,000.

Chan made the call and then Cabret check-called a bet of 575,000 on the {8-Spades} river. Chan showed {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for a set, and it was good as Cabret could only muster two pair with {J-}{10-}.

Tan vs. Yan Round 4

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

Action folded to Jay Tan in the small blind and she opened for 50,000, which [Removed:17] called from the big. Yan proceeded to call bets of 65,000 on both the {10-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} flop and {8-Clubs} turn, and then Tan fired out 100,000 on the {10-Clubs} river. This time Yan opted to raise to 275,000, and Tan made the call with {K-Hearts}{q-Spades}. Unfortunately for her, Yan had rivered a flush with {Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}.

"Hong Kong" Kenny Wong on the rail to support his girlfriend Jay Tan.
"Hong Kong" Kenny Wong on the rail to support his girlfriend Jay Tan.

After a series of bets and raises, Jay Tan was all in for around 550,000 with {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. She was racing against the {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} of Mervin Chan, and the flop fell {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades}. No help to Tan.

The turn was the {k-Diamonds}, giving her a straight draw, and the {j-Clubs} spiked on the river to give her Broadway.

She excitedly high fived a friend on the rail, then raked in the million-chip pot. Chan was reduced to 2.89 million chips.

One of the most sought-after gadgets in the world, the Nexus 4 smartphone, has been out of stock more than it has been available, but PartyPoker is offering PokerNews customers the chance to get their hands on one — and a share of $2,000.

On Feb. 9 at 15:00 ET (20:00 GMT), PartyPoker is hosting an Aussie Millions Freeroll that is exclusive to PokerNews customers. Players who makes their first deposits on PartyPoker between Jan. 28 and Feb. 9 will automatically be entered into the PokerNews Aussie Millions Freeroll.

  • Tournament Name: PokerNews Aussie Millions Freeroll
  • Date: Feb. 9, 2013
  • Time: 15:00 ET (20:00GMT)
  • Prize pool: Nexus 4 plus $2,000 in cash
  • Payout structure: Winner receives a Nexus 4; cash awarded according to standard PartyPoker payout structure
  • Restrictions: Only available to PokerNews customers who make their first deposit between Jan. 28 and Feb. 9
