The Dragon Gets Boosted Into The Chip Lead

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
David Pham
David Pham

We just witnessed a huge pot take place between David "The Dragon" Pham and Justin "BoostedJ" Smith.

There was at least 50,000 chips in the pot by the turn where Pham made a bet of 45,000 chips on a board of {9-Spades}{J-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Smith took a while to tank before he finally slid the chips into the pot for a call.

The river was the {6-Spades} and Pham didn't waste too much time betting 75,000. Smith fell into the tank again but this time he settled on a fold. He grabbed his cards and tossed them into the muck, while Pham slid his hand facedown to the dealer.

Pham has a clear cut grasp on the chip lead after scooping the huge pot.
