Kido Pham - Day 1a
Kido Pham - Day 1a
Kido Pham just doubled up when his {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} held off the {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} of Gert Anderson.

Pham was all in before the flop and when the cards were turned up he said, "I've been waiting for this."

The board ran out {J-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} and Pham doubled to about 880,000 leaving Anderson with only 250,000.
