Phan Can't Crack Aces
Level 4
: 200/400, 400 ante
In what looked like a three-bet pot with almost 9,000 in the middle, Tuan Phan bet 3,500 from early position after the big blind checked on 
. That player called and checked the 
turn. Phan barreled for 10,000. The big blind stared him down then called.
Both players checked the 
and Phan couldn't beat the 
his opponent flipped over.

McKeehen Busted, Back in
Level 4
: 200/400, 400 ante
Joe McKeehen opened in the cutoff for 1,000, the next player made it 3,000, and the big blind cold-called. McKeehen didn't need long before jamming all in. It was 20,300 more and the player who three-bet tanked awhile before calling. The other player snap-folded.
McKeehen: 
Opponent: 
McKeehen was crushed and the 
runout didn't change that. Luckily for McKeehen, he's got some ammo for another bullet after winning last night's $10K High Roller here for more than $224K, and he quickly headed back to the registration desk to take another shot.

Brown's Four-Bet Gets No Respect
Level 3
: 200/300, 300 ante
Jeremy Brown opened early for 800, the player on his left made it 2,500, the hijack and cutoff called, and action was back on Brown. He reraised to 12,500. The original three-bettor let it go but the others were sticker.
Action checked to the turn on 
. Brown then bet 11,000 and earned the pot after two quick folds.
