Phung Doesn't Get There This Time

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Helmut Phung limped in with {j-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and John Doe checked his option with {q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{a-Hearts} and Phung led out for 550,000. Doe called with his pair of queens, then improved to trips on the {q-Hearts} turn.

Phung checked this time as Doe bet 1,100,000. Phung called with straight and flush draws, but didn't connect with the {7-Diamonds} as both players checked the river.
