Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Paul Phua
Paul Phua

Paul Phua was all in preflop and in big trouble as he had the {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} against the {a-}{a-} of Ben Heath.

But the flop came {3-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts} to launch Phua into the lead. The turn was the {10-Hearts} and the river came the {q-Hearts} to confirm his double.

Another player at the table claimed to have folded an eight, meaning that Phua had hit the case eight to crack the aces.
