Preflop, Young Phan led out for 3,600 from under the gun and was called by John Murphy on the button. The flop fell {J-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {K-Spades}. Phan led out for 8,000 and Murphy called. The turn brought the {A-Diamonds} and Phan check-called a 17,000 raise from Murphy. The river was the {10-Clubs} and after Phan checked, Murphy made it 24,000 to go. Phan came over the top by moving all in and Murphy eventually folded the hand, but not before flashing pocket eights for a flopped set.


After the fold, Murphy is down to 23,000 while Phan is up over 100,000.
