Trouble for Phan?

[user75032]

Now that Shun Uchida has grabbed a few chips to bring himself closer to the other two players, play has slowed down considerably. Even John Phan is being more careful.

In a hand between Phan and Gioi Luong, Phan reraised out of the small blind after Luong raised the button. Luong called. Phan took one card on the first draw to Luong's two. Phan bet; Luong called.

Phan was pat on the second draw, while Luong again took two. Imagine Phan's surprise when Luong raised him after he bet. Phan tanked for over a minute, trying to decide what to do. Ultimately, he mucked his hand and claimed he folded 8-7-6.

During the hand, a cocktail server delivered ten beers to the table that Phan ordered. For the moment, they are lined up in two rows of five on an adjoining table.
