Chan's Pair No Good

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

What could have been a fireworks-filled hand between Johnny Chan and a player on the button fizzled after an uncooperative flop. Chan opened preflop for 700 from middle position, then called the button's re-raise to 2,500. Both players cautiously checked an {A-Hearts}

{3-Spades}

{6-Spades}

flop, with the button player peeking back at his hand before he checked. It was the same action on the {Q-Diamonds}

turn and again when the river fell {8-Diamonds}

.

At showdown, Chan tabled {10-Clubs}

{10-Spades}

. His pair was one pip lower than the button's {J-Clubs}
