John Phan Eliminates Goldberg

John Phan raised to 20,000 in early position and Fred Goldberg went all in from the big blind for 46,000. Goldberg quickly turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and Phan showed {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}.

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades} and the turn brought the {5-Diamonds} and Goldberg was looking good going into the final card.

But the river was the {k-Spades} and Goldberg was relieved of his chips.

Phan is up to 149,000.
