Hand #18 - Tim Phan Doubles Through Guy Laliberte

Hand #18 - Paul Lee has the button in seat 5, Laliberte raises under the gun to 500,000, and Phan moves all in for 1,092,000 from the small blind. After about 30 seconds of thinking, Laliberte calls.

Phan shows {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}, dominating Laliberte's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. The flop comes {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, and it creates the potential for a chopped pot. But the turn card is the {K-Spades}, and Phan clinches the hand with a pair of kings. (The meaningless river card is the {6-Clubs}.)

Tim Phan wins the hand to double up in chips.
