		Johnny Chan, often mentioned in the same breath as Doyle Brunson for having an equal and eye-popping number of WSOP bracelets he could wear at once if he felt like it (ten, in all), is one of pokerâs most famous names.
		He is known for his âlucky orangeâ placed at the table according to Chan for its pleasant alternative odour to cigarette smoke, but copied by awe-struck or superstitious players with a nod to the original orange mascot to this day.
		The range of games Johnny Chan played and continues to play is impressive, and to those who thought his bracelet-chasing days were over: the 2005 PLHE event had 425 runners including todayâs expected âyoung gunsâ and he beat them all, including Phil âthe Unabomberâ Laak heads up to take another title.
