Francis Fan was dominant in this one. I didn’t get eyes on the game until the final two tables, but from the first time I checked through the end of the game, Fan had the most chips in the room.
Fan took out the final three players on his way to the win, starting with Vancouver’s Juno Lau with ace-nine into king-queen. Lau hit a queen on the flop, but fan rivered his ace for the win.
He then moved on to DJ Sharma, sending the McDonald’s magnate home in 3rd with queen-ten when both players flopped a pair but Fan’s was best. That left Mike X to get through, and while they played a few hands without any big confrontations, Mike was very short-stacked and it went in on a two-spade flop with Mike holding a flopped pair. Fan had the spade draw, though, and nailed it on the turn for the big win.
This looks to be Fan’s 8th live win and he has more than $500k in live earnings.
