Phua Busts to Yong
Niveau 15
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
A short-stacked Paul Phua moved all-in for 22,500 (just under five big blinds) from the cutoff and small blind Richard Yong moved all-in for 177,000 to isolate.
The 
flop was not a good one for Phua, giving Yong top set. The 
turn gave Phua a backdoor diamond draw, increasing his equity in the hand, but the 
river dashed these hopes and gave Yong quads. Yong climbed to 207,000 while Phua hit the rail, bringing the field down to eight.
