Chan Hooks Two

Fireworks had just flown on Table 6 as a slew of chips were in the process of being sent Ian Chan's way. According to both Chan and Billy Le in a team effort, Le opened to 7,000 from early position and was three-bet to 11,500 from JC Tran out of the cutoff. The player on the button then went all in for 29,500.

After Amir Turkzadeh folded his small blind, action was on Ian Chan in the big blind. He called, prompting a fold from Le. Tran then called to take future action heads up between Chan and Tran for a side pot.

The flop fell and Chan shoved for the effective 30,000 or so left in Tran's stack. Tran called.

The turn came to give Chan a sweat at wheel outs, but he faded them as the river secured the double knockout for him, bringing him to the quarter-million chip mark with less than a half-hour of play left in the night.
