Phua Bluffs Eibinger with Nut Low
The short stack three handed cannot be discounted when it’s Paul Phua. When Webster Lim folded his button, Matthias Eibinger raised in the small blind to 160,000 with [Kd3h], called by Phua with [2d3d]. Phua check-called Eibinger’s 110,000 bet on the [5sTc6d] flop. Both players checked the [7h] turn, and Phua led out for 260,000 on the [8h] river.
Eibinger’s fold was rewarded with a show of Phua’s cards, which he made sure to point out was the “nut low!”
