Combat Continues

Shortly after the recent exchange between John Phan and Gioi Luong, we had a fairly large three-way pot in which Shun Uchida benefitted from the other two players' aggression. By the end of that one, Uchida's 8-6-4-3-2 nipped Luong's 8-7-4-3-2, and Uchida took a nice-sized pot.

On the next one, Phan raised from the button and Luong called from the big blind. Both took two cards on the first round. Luong checked, Phan bet, and Luong quickly check-raised. Phan paused, then called.

On the second draw, both players took one card. Luong bet and Phan called. On the third draw, both again took one card. "Here comes the skill card," called Phan.

Luong checked. "Sign of weakness," said Phan. Phan checked as well. Luong didn't show his hand right away, so Phan turned over his J-7-6-4-3. His jack was good, as Luong mucked.

We'll update those chip counts in a moment.
