Chan Loses A Chunk
There was already a big pot brewing between Johnny Chan and Chau Nguyen when we arrived at the table. There was about 24,000 in the middle, and the board read 
. Nguyen fired out a bet of 15,200, and Chan tossed in the call after about 20 seconds of thought. The river brought the 
, putting four cards to broadway on the board. Nguyen checked after a few moments of thought, and Chan did the same shortly after.
Nguyen flipped over 
for a turned set, and Chan slammed the stack of chips he was shuffling on the table, before folding his hand. As he did, the 
flashed. After the hand, Chan is down to 165,000.
