One of the crushers who predated the Poker Boom of the early 2000’s, Johnny Chan won his first WSOP bracelet in the $1,000 Limit Hold’em event at the 1985 WSOP.
In 1987 and 1988, Chan would win back-to-back WSOP Main Events, becoming only the fourth player to accomplish the feat. Nearly pulling off the three-peat in 1989, Chan would famously lose heads-up to Phil Hellmuth in that year’s Main Event.
With the massive fields the WSOP Main Event attracts every year, Chan may very well be the last poker player to ever win the event in back-to-back years.
Holding ten career WSOP bracelets, Chan is tied with Erik Seidel and Doyle Brunson for the third most all-time, behind only Phil Ivey (11) and Phil Hellmuth (17).
Along with his poker accolades, Chan is most famous for his appearance in the 1998 film Rounders. Touted as the “End Boss” of poker in the film, Chan stars as himself as he faces off with Matt Damon’s character Mike McDermott in one of the film’s most memorable scenes.
