Chan Doubles Through Cabret Yet Again
Level 27
: 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Dan Shak opened for 250,000 from the button and Joseph Cabret called from the small blind. Mervin Chan then moved all in from the big for 1.52 million total, Shak folded, and Cabret thought for about a minute before making the call.
Chan:
Cabret:
It was a classic flip and Chan just needed to hold to stay in contention for the AU$1.6 million first-place prize. The flop was fairly safe, though it did give Cabret counterfeit options. The turn was a good card for Chan, and the river gave him the double, much to the amusement of his supporters in the stands.
