Crippled, then finds two doubles

Catching the action with the board reading {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{2-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

both Tony Makasovski and Roger Spets checking to Van Binh Pham in the cutoff.

Pham opted with a 30,000-chip bet into the 48,000-chip pot, only to have Makasovski check-raise to 75,000.

Spets took his time folding before Pham moved all in. Makasovski called and tabled his {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

for runner-runner Quads while Pham flashed his {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

while being left crippled with 3,500.

As Makasovski raked in the pot to climb to 280,000, Spets spoke up saying that he had folded a pair of Queens.

The next hand Pham would double when his {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

would outdraw Tom Rafferty's {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{4-Diamonds}

and then again against Van Marcus' {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

with his

{K-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

.

The result - Pham will bag 35,000 in chips for day three!
