Cole Burned by the Dragon

With 30,000 in the middle and a flop of {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, David "The Dragon" Pham checked, Corwin Cole bet 16,400, and Pham called. The turn was the {J-Clubs}. This time Pham led out for 25,000, Cole reraised all in for his last 38,000, and Pham quickly called, turning over {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} for the turned set. Cole showed {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}.

The river was the {Q-Clubs}, and Cole is out. Pham now has 220,000.
