Paul Phua
Paul Phua

From early position, Chamath Palihapitiya raised to 48,000. Paul Phua made the call from the next seat and then both Phil Hellmuth and Daniel Negreanu called out of the blinds.

Hellmuth then led for 100,000 on the {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop. Negreanu and Palihapitiya folded, but Phua raised all in for 349,000. Hellmuth called with the {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Phua had out-flopped him with the {K-Spades}{10-Spades}.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and river the {9-Clubs}, keeping Phua in front and doubling him up.
