Uchida Chips Up

[user75032]

John Phan is starting to redistribute a few chips to the table. He raised before the first draw, and Shun Uchida called from the small blind. Uchida took one on the first draw, bringing a surprised clucking of the tongue from Phan, who took three. Uchida bet, and Phan called.

On the second draw, Uchida took one again. "I'm supposed to take one," said Phan, "but I'm taking two. I'm gambling. I'm always lucky on the second street." Uchida bet and again Phan called.

Uchida was pat on the third draw. Phan took one, then tanked after Uchida checked to him. Ultimately, he also checked. Uchida opened 8-7-5-4-2.

"I made a six," joked Phan, showing a deuce-to-six straight and mucking his hand.
