Tan Approaches a Million With a Straight Flush
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Around 200,000 was already in the middle as Chang Tan and Sandor Hadnagy went to the turn on a board of 8♠5♣10♥9♥. Hadnagy then moved all in for 220,000 in the small blind.
Tan took a minute before calling in the cutoff. Hadnagy showed K♥J♣, while Tan had 8♥7♥ for a pair and flush draw.
The river was the 6♥. "Straight flush," Tan said, standing up to snap a photo of the board before the massive pot was pushed in his direction, boosting his stack up to nearly 1,000,000 as Hadnagy was sent to the rail.
