Fan Makes the Wrong Call to Send Trayner's Stack Soaring
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Heads-up on a board of 3♠K♣2♣7♦ with several hundred thousand already in the middle, Chih Wei Fan bet 275,000 from the big blind and Malcolm Trayner called in middle position.
The 4♦ completed the board and Fan slightly increased his wager for a bet of 300,000. Trayner thought a while before announcing he was all in, which was enough to put Fan all in for his last 975,000.
Fan went deep into the tank and began quietly listing what he thought Trayner's hands could be.
After a few minutes, Fan reluctantly called all in and Trayner turned over K♦Q♦ for a pair of kings. Fan showed he held Q♣Q♥ for a pair of queens and was eliminated.
"I level myself too much..." Fan said. "Good game."
