More Snow

Deuces are a key card in deuce-to-seven lowball games. A great opportunity for snowing arises when you hold all the deuces. Just ask Gioi Luong.

He raised from the small blind, and John Phan called in the big blind. Luong was pat on the first draw, while Phan took three. Luong bet and Phan called. On the second draw, Luong was pat again. Phan took two, then folded after Luong bet.

Luong flashed 2-2-2-Q-Q.

For the most part, Luong has been quiet since he asked that the rail be cleared, choosing to sit back and allow Shun Uchida and John Phan to go after each other. Uchida has won three of the last four pots in which he was heads up against Phan.

Phan, for his part, has started taking a long time (for a limit game, anyway) to make each of his decisions. His shrinking chip stack may have something to do with that, as each lost pot pushes him closer and closer to elimination.
