Chan Rivers Forrest

With the board reading {Q-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {8-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}, Forrest Griffin check-called a 1,000 bet from Johnny Chan. Chan turned over {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}, his kings up counterfeiting the two pair Griffin flopped with {Q-Diamonds} {J-Spades}.

'You have the best hand, Forrest--until the river," said Chan as he raked in the pot.
