Chan Hero Calls Lamb
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a blind versus blind battle, Ben Lamb bet 4,000 on a flop of 5?9?5? and Johnny Chan called in the big blind.
Both players checked the 5? turn and the A? fell on the river. Lamb then bet 12,000.
Chan tanked for around 30 seconds before calling. Lamb then showed Q?3? for a bluff, and Chan turned over K?10? to win the pot with king-high.
"Johnny, that's a hell of a call," a tablemate said as the Poker Hall of Famer and two-time Main Event champion took the pot.
Frank Funaro and Tristan Wade are also at this table with above-average stacks.
