Skillin Eliminated, Phan Folds Preflop, Mcdow Gets Paid
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Roger Mcdow raised from late position to 95,000, David Skillin three-bet all in for 195,000, and John Phan was in the cutoff and four-bet to 320,000. Mcdow immediately moved all in for 1,345,000. Phan tanked for quite a few minutes and was mulling it over extremely hard, but eventually made the fold to save his tournament life and showed ace-king after the cards were revealed.
David Skillin: Q♦J♣ 
Roger Mcdow: A♠K♦
The board went K♥6♣9♠2♦3♦, and Mcdow won with his pair of kings. Phan regretted his decision, even though it would have been a chopped pot.
Scott Lazar commented jokingly, "You took so long, I'm old enough to make the Super Seniors now".
