Chau Giang doubles up


Chau Giang has just doubled up in dramatic fashion.  He was all in preflop with the best hand, holding pocket nines against his opponent's pocket sixes.  The flop fell 2-5-4, giving Chau's opponent a gutshot straight draw to go along with his draw to a set.  The miracle fell an unfortunate six, leaving Chau drawing to a bigger set, or a chopped pot if a 3 hit the river.  The river gave Chau the nine he needed, and he will survive and double up.
