Everyone Tries To Bluff Johnny Chan!

Johnny Chan - Stop Bluffing Me!
Johnny Chan - Stop Bluffing Me!

Why does everyone try to bluff Johnny Chan?

On a board of {A-Spades} {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {10-Spades} and 2,000 in the pot we have two-way action with Johnny Chan and an unnamed opponent. The unnamed opponent checked to Chan who bet 1,500 and his unnamed opponent check-raised to 3,500. Chan thought about it for a while, looked at his opponents stack (2,600 behind) and moved all-in and his opponent immediately mucked his hand.

Richard Toth

Richard Toth has just finished in 3rd place in Event #4 €3,200 NLHE Shootout for a very respectable €84,000. We are sure he was very disappointed at not winning his first WSOP bracelet, but he is not crying over spilt milk, he has just sat down to play this event.

Kudos to you Mr Toth!

Chan Loses Some

We caught the action on the flop with {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades} on the board. Johnny Chan had bet out 2,100 and got raised to 9,000. Chan thought about it for a long time but eventually called. The turn was the {10-Spades} and Chan checked. His unknown opponent grabbed chips and bet out 5,500 with only a few chips behind and after taking serious time Chan folded.

Johnny Chan still has plenty of chips to work with and is looking for a deep run in his first WSOPE event this year.

Angry Nassif

Gabriel Nassif

Nicolas Fierro drops a 500 chip in front of him in the small blind.

"Is that a call or a raise?" Asks Nassif.

Nobody answered Nassif so he asks Fierro directly and he tells him that it was a raise. Nassif made the call and they shared a flop of {8-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs}. Fierro dropped 1,200 over the line and Nassif folded before continuing to remonstrate with the dealer about the call...raise...call...well you get our point.

Behbehani Keeps Winning

Salman Behbehani keeps winning pots and currently chip leader with 65,000 chips. He just knocked out another player and we could barely get the details. On a {K-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} flop his opponent bet 2,100 and Behbehani raised to 4,200. Within seconds his opponent shoved all-in for around 9,000 chips and the obvious call followed quickly.

Salman Behbehani{Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Opponent{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

The turn was the {6-Spades} and the river the {10-Diamonds} giving Behbehani the wining flush.
