Yu Cements Top Spot With Showdown Pot Versus Phua
Level 13
: Blinds 0/0, 20,000 ante
Three ways to the K♥10♦6♦ flop, Paul Phua bet 200,000 in the cutoff. Winfred Yu called and Ming Hong Teoh folded as Danny Tang joked "unexpected call" in table chat.
Both players checked the 9♠ on the turn before Yu then led the 8♣ river for 300,000. Phua wasn't happy but eventually tossed in calling chips. Yu tabled the Q♦J♥ and that won the pot with the nut straight.
