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 {J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs} 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 {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a runner-runner nut flush, taking a bite from Volpe's stack.
