Chan Doubles With Top Set

Danny Huynh opened on the button to 65,000, only to have Johnny Chan three-bet to 150,000 from the big blind.

Huynh asked for a count, and after finding out Chan had 209,000 behind, he just called.

The flop landed {A-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Chan checked and was immediately followed by Huynh pushing all in. Chan quickly obliged and the cards were tabled.

Huynh: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Chan: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

With Huynh drawing virtually dead, the {4-Clubs} on the turn would lock the pot for Chan, and once the meaningless {2-Diamonds} fell on the river, Chan was pushed the pot to climb to 742,000 in chips.
