David Pham's Main Event ends with an hour left in Level 2. After Tony Gagliandi limped in from late position, Pham raised to 700 from the small blind. The big blind and Gagliandi both called. Action on the {J-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} flop checked to Gagliandi, who bet 200. Pham check-raised to 1,000 and was called only by Gagliandi.

Before the turn card was even down on the felt, Pham moved all in for his remaining 2,075. The turn was the {9-Diamonds}; Gagliandi instantly called and tabled {4-Hearts} {4-Spades} for a full house, fours full of nines. Pham had pocket aces and did not improve win the river came {6-Hearts}. He is out.
