Pham Makes Tough Call to Double
Niveau 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Heads-up on a 3♦3♠J♦8♦ board, Cong Pham bet 225,000 from the big blind before Scott Berko moved all in in the cutoff. Pham tanked for several minutes as he considered the call for his last 905,000.
A tablemate eventually called the clock and Pham slid forward his stack once the countdown began. He showed J♥10♥ for top pair and was ahead of Berko's A♦K♥.
The river came the 2♠ and Pham doubled up.
