The Dragon Devours Dandrea

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
David "The Dragon" Pham Here on Day 2
David "The Dragon" Pham Here on Day 2

After an opening raise, Raymond Dandrea three-bet to 24,000, with David "The Dragon" Pham four-betting to 65,000. After Dandrea flatted to see the flop fall {q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, Pham checked and then snap-called Dandrea's all-in bet, which actually put "The Dragon" all in for his last 83,000.

Showdown:

Pham: {Q-Spades}{6-Spades}
Dandrea: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Pham hit the flop hard with top two pair, and he was way in front of Dandrea's pocket nines. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave Pham a full house, and the {4-Clubs} on the river gave him the win. This hand left Dandrea essentially crippled, while Pham solidified his position as the march to the final table continues.
