...at least I won my last longer!

The ever-dangerous John Phan has just been eliminated from the tournament by Jani Sointula.

Phan opened the pot with a raise to 2,100 and Sointula was the lone caller. The flop came {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{7-Clubs}

and Phan made a continuation bet of 3,000. Sointula then raised the pot and Phan countered by moving all in. Sointula made the call and a showdown ensued:

Phan: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{A-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

Sointula:

{Q-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

The turn delivered the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

-- a good card for Sointula, as it gave him a heart flush. The river blanked out ( {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

) and Jani's flush held up to take down the pot, bringing him to approximately 75,000 on the day.
