Kaplan Derails the Orient Express

Johnny Chan won't be returning tomorrow
Johnny Chan won't be returning tomorrow
We're not sure how it happened, but Johnny Chan got all of his chips into the middle preflop with {K-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Gabe Kaplan called with {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and quickly took the lead on a flop of {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}.

Chan was drawing to a non-heart king and couldn't get there as the board ran out {3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Look for Kaplan to face off against Joe Hachem when play resumes tomorrow.
