Razor Bluffed

With the big blind still at dinner, John Phan decided to raise from the cutoff position to 1,600. Matt Vengrin in the small blind decided to reraise to 5,200 and Phan made the call.

The flop is {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and Vengrin checked to Phan who bet out 3,600. Vengrin then made it 7,700 to go. Phan the reraised once again making it 13,900 before Vengrin shoves all in for 23,900 in total. Phan went into the tank and eventually laid it down.

Vengrin showed {A-Spades}{9-Spades} for nothing but imagination as Phan takes a dent to his big stack.
