Phan Forced To Fold Again

John Phan raised his second hand in succession, this time from under the gun, making it 40,000 to go. Matt Vengrin was next to speak and quickly reraised an additional 111,000. The action folded around to Phan who again was forced to a big decision.

He deliberated for several minutes before folding {6-Clubs}{6-Spades} face up. That's the third pocket pair he's folded without seeing a flop at this final table. Phan is now on the short stack and although he's not desperate yet, he's going to have to make a stand sometime soon.
