Negreanu Khan't See Blue 10K Chip

[user46298]

Hevad Khan just doubled through Daniel Negreanu, dropping him to the point where he's grazing the felt. I picked up the action on the river, when Khan had checked, and Negreanu pushed all in for 23k, which covered his opponent. The board stood {4-Hearts}

, and Khan eventually called all in, showing {5-Hearts}

for a winning two pair.

It did really look like Khan only had a couple of thousand, but it turned out at the bottom of his stack lurked a newly introduced blue 10k chip. Negreanu was surprised: "What is that, 10k? I swear I thought it was a 500 chip!"

"Sick beat," commented Khan.
"Whatever," countered Negreanu, "I haven't seen a 10k chip in this tournament!"
