Young Phan Quadruples Up

Young Phan
Young Phan
A very short-stacked Young Phan got the last of his chips in against three other players. The players showed:

Phan: {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs}
Opponent 1: {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}
Opponent 2: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades}
Opponent 3: {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds}

Phan was in very bad shape but managed to come away unscatched on the {5-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {5-Diamonds} board. The player with the aces took down a big side pot but Phan quadrupled up to 2,600 chips.
