Chairud Vangchailued: A Name Not Conducive to Puns

Chairud Vangchailued has been riding the roller coaster today. He was in the mix of the leaders around 240,000 a few hours ago, but his stack took a turn for the worse from then on. Eventually, Vangchailued moved to a new table with just 2,000 chips. With the blinds at 3,000/6,000, he posted a 500 ante and was all in for 1,500 from the big blind. He's multiplied his stack several times since then, and we pick him up involved in another recent pot.

, and our hero moved all in for 43,500. His opponent called, tabling {A-Diamonds}

. It was no good though; Vangchailued turned over {7-Diamonds}

, having flopped a full boat.

After a long grind in the doldrums, Chairud Vangchailued has now doubled all the way back above average, sitting now with right at 250,000.
