Phua's Bad Feeling Proves to Be Wrong
Level 2
: 0/0, 1,000 ante
Paul Phua and Gabe Patgorski tangled on a flop of 
with Patgorski sitting on the button. Phua checked, Patgorski bet 6,000 and Phua check-raised to 15,000. Patgorski wasn't done yet, he clicked back with a three-bet to 26,000, Phua raised again and they ended up all in.
Phua: 
Patgorski: 
"I have a feeling that you will win," Phua said. "Sorry for the suckout," Patgorski replied.
But the bad scenario Phua was expecting didn't materialize as the 
turn and 
river held his hand ahead. Phua vaulted to 230,000 and Patgorski continued with 100,000 after firing a new bullet.
