Chanracy Khun has been battling against the forces of unconventional poker for several levels today, and his stack had taken somewhat of a beating along the way. Although the stack sizes on the final table are in a fairly snug range between 1M and 2.6M, Chanracy had the smallest stack and needed to double to regain some hope of a first place prize.
Well just moments ago he found the double up he needed against Eric Aucoin. Eric opened the action to 120K and Chanracy re-raised all-in – Eric made the call.

The board ran out safely for Chanracy and he managed a full double.
Update
Just a couple of hands later, Chanracy took another 600K pot from Eric, so just like that Chanracy is the chip leader in the tournament. He is now up to 2,850,000 while Eric has dropped to 1,500,000.
