Lederer Slays the Dragon

Howard Lederer raised from the cutoff and Pham called the two bets from the button, leaving himself less than one bet. Before the flop came out, Pham announced he was all in in the dark.

The flop came {K-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, and Lederer called Pham's bet. The flop had been kind to the Dragon, who held {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, while Lederer tabled {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. A queen on the turn gave Lederer more outs, and one of them -- an ace -- came on the river to knock out Pham.

Lederer now has 13.800.
