Phan All In and Called?

Young Phan is short, but having a blast

When the action folded around to the cutoff seat, Young Phan broke into song: "And now... the end is near..." With that, he pushed the rest of his chips into the middle and began counting them out. "... six hundred forty thousand," he lied, actually pushing just 156,000 lonely chips in.

The small blind folded, and James Taylor went into the tank for a good thirty seconds. Finally, he quietly said, "I call so wide here, but not this hand," and opened up his {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} onto the table. Phan and the dealer only heard, "I call," and Phan tabled {Q-Clubs} {3-Clubs}. A few of the players closer to Taylor gave the floor person the correct version of the story, and the gregarious Phan just chuckled and added the blinds to his small stack.
