Kanaan Flips His Way to Lead

We��ve just seen the biggest pot of the tournament so far with Michael Kanaan winning an enormous coinflip to take a huge lead on this final table with Amit Varma now back on the short stack.

It started with a limp from Hoang Anh Do on the button. Kanaan completed in the small blind before Varma upped the price another 40,000 in the big blind. Do called and action was back on Kanaan. Out of nowhere, Kanaan declared himself all in! It was a total of 843,000 more and after a minute of thought Varma announced a call! Do quickly escaped and we had two million chips in the middle with the following hands:

Varma: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Kanaan: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}

It was a game-changing flip which went the way of the Aussie as the board ran out {9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. We have a new chip leader in town!
