Phua Doubles Koon; Gets Chips Back After

Level 4 : 0/0, 2,000 ante

Jason Koon was all in and at risk for 140,000 with the {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and Paul Phua was covered with the {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. While Phua flopped best on {10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, the {K-Spades} turn and {A-Clubs} river run out gave Koon the better pair.

Right after, Phua was all in for 100,000 after he had redeemed his final bullet and Koon had him all in and at risk with the {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}. Phua had picked up {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Koon said "I have a good feeling about this one." That feeling got even stronger on the {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop, giving Koon a gutshot and flush draw on top. However, the {9-Clubs} turn and {7-Hearts} river were both blanks.
