Phua Sweats a Split
A tense moment for Paul Phua just now, as he jammed on Matthias Eibinger yet again with [As5d], only to find his opponent calling with a dominating [Ad9s], saying, “I’m going for it!”
The [AcKc7d] flop showed a glimmer of chop-pot hope for Phua, as did the [Kd]; it glowed brightly into fruition with the [Ah] river. Eibinger goes back to being at a near 3:1 chip deficit.
