Chan Flip, and Flipping Well

Terrence Chan and Maria Mayrinck joking around.
Terrence Chan and Maria Mayrinck joking around.

Terrence Chan is now sitting behind a sizable stack, much to the consternation of neighbor Maria Mayrinck. Chan told us he came by his 55,000 by five-bet shoving with {a-}{k-}. His opponent snap-called with pocket tens, and Chan hit two aces to win the flip.

"Run better!" Mayrinck told him.

"I'm sorry. Next time I'll just hit one ace," he compromised. "I didn't know I was rubbing it in."

The rest of the table kindly reminded Chan that he better make short work of his chips. The limit hold'em WCOOP is scheduled for 6:00 pm local time tomorrow, and he has a title to defend. Not to worry, though. Day 2 will likely be short enough that he can sacrifice a few levels of limit blinds and get to the online felt without a problem.
