Setback for Phan

So much for watching Young Phan accumulate chips. By the time we got back to his table he was down to about 35,000 chips. Judging from the stacks at the table, we figured (and later confirmed) that the chips wound up in the stack of Kris Cunz.

"I sucked out on him reeeeeeeal good," said Cunz. "Gamble, gamble my friend."

Cunz seems to have been blessed by the God of Fortune. We saw him win a heads-up pot with king-high {K-Clubs} {j-Spades}, betting 750 on the {7-Spades} {7-Hearts} {9-Hearts} flop and 2,300 on the {Q-Spades} turn. Both players checked the {Q-Hearts} river, where Cunz's king played.

He is up to 47,000.
