Chan Barrels To Hit the Nuts
Level 8
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Small blind Johnny Chan raised to 6,000 and Paul Volpe defended his big blind.
It was just a warm-up for a hand that would see the pot grow very big as Chan continued in his aggression all the way through the ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
board.
Chan fired 10,000 on the flop and Volpe quickly called. He called another 25,000 on the turn and Chan completed his triple-barrel with a 50,000 river bet.
Volpe sighed, leaned back in his chair, and mumbled something about his calling range. After a minute, he threw in the calling chips.
Chan turned up the ![]()
for a runner-runner nut flush, taking a bite from Volpe's stack.
