Pham Can't Blow Grogan Off Aces
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Cong Pham raised to 160,000 from under the gun and was called by Daniel Weinman next to act before Danny Grogan, in middle position, three-bet to 520,000. Action folded back to Pham who called, while Weinman got out of the way.
The flop came 2♠9♥8♣ and Pham checked to Grogan, who bet another 360,000. Pham called to the 7♥ turn, where he then led out for 875,000.
Grogan tanked for a moment before calling. The river came the 6♠ and Pham fired out 1,800,000. Grogan snap-called and Pham was forced to show K♥J♥ for a bluff.
Grogan turned over A♠A♦ as he took down the big pot.
