How come Johny Chan doesn't play in the big game?

[KSOT]

Or at least, how come I've never heard about it?

Is he strictly a tournament player? Is he mostly just a hold 'em expert like Hellmuth?

[Hold'me]

He does play in the big game.

[KSOT]

Oh... >_>

Does he do well?

[Alexthegreat]

He's played in it for years. I think he does okay.

[Smoothcall]

From Barry G:

Best game: Pot-limit Omaha
Weakness: Not focused as much as he once was

In the late ‘80’s and early ‘90’s, Johnny was the best no-limit hold’em tournament player in the world. Since then, he has used his tournament success as a vehicle to get his himself involved in different business ventures. He is still a skilled player, but he plays very impatiently as if he is late for a meeting. He used to be very weak at limit poker, but he improved his limit game significantly in the late ‘90’s and early 00’s. It is probably surprising that I listed pot-limit Omaha as his best game, but I am going by results and his best results over the last few years in side games (and even in the WSOP) have been in pot-limit Omaha.
