Webster Lim Eliminated in 3rd with Big Flop Move ($672,000)
Webster Lim just put Paul Phua to a big flop decision, which, in the end, led to his elimination from the final table. Preflop, Phua on the button raised to 250,000 with [Ac5d], called by big blind Lim with [7c5c] (with 1,200,000 behind). On the [4h3d3s] flop, Lim check-raised all in after Phua bet 175,000 and spent the time Phua tanked staring impassively in front of him. Finally, Phua made the call, saying “sorry, brother!” when he saw his opponent’s hand. Though there were still the turn and river to come, the [8d9c] that the deck provided did nothing for Lim and he leaves this final table heads up.
