Young Phan - 10th Place

Young Phan opened from under the gun by pushing all in for 250,000, and the table folded around to Benjamin Scholl who made the call. The blinds folded, and the players opened their hands:

Phan {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

Scholl

{J-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

The flop came {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

, giving Phan an open-ended straight draw, but he didn't want to see a heart. The turn brought the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

, and Phan was down to one card.

The river was the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

, and Phan is eliminated in 10th place. That hand takes Scholl up over 1,000,000.
