Pham Triples Up
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Quang Pham moved all in for 5,000 from middle position and was called by Nick Barksdale and another opponent in the big blind.
Barksdale and the big blind checked down the J♦6♠9♦8♠3♣ board. Barksdale showed A♣10♣, the big blind had K♦Q♥, while Pham slammed down 4♣4♦ and raised his arms in the air in celebration as his fours held on to earn him the triple up.
"17K just like that," another tablemate said.
