Picking Up Where He Left Off

John Phan
John Phan
On the first hand back from break, John Phan raised from the button, Gioi Luong three-bet from the big blind, and Phan called. Luong stood pat, and Phan took two. Luong bet and Phan called. On the second draw, Luong stood pat again, and Phan again drew two. Once more, Luong bet and Phan called.

On the third draw, Luong again stuck with his original five, and Phan took one card. This time Luong bet, and Phan tossed out the bet of 16,000. Luong called.

Phan spread out his 7-6-5-3-2, and Luong mucked. Phan is now up to 609,000, and Luong -- his nearest competitor -- has 347,000.
