Kai Cocklin

Level 2 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Hoang Phan had pumped it up to 4,600 preflop after an open and both Fabian Scherle & Peter Bosen had made the call to take it to the streets.

On the K♣7♥A♠ flop, Scherle checked and Phan bet 5,500. Bosen quickly called, and Scherle folded.

The 6♦ on the turn drew another bet from Phan, this time for 11,000. Again, Bosen wasted no time in calling

A 10♠ completed the runout and Phan kept up the trend of betting extremely quickly by firing 25,000. Bosen didn't imitate the speed of Phan's play, and had to slow down a bit to think this one over. After rechecking his cards, Bosen tossed in a blue chip, worth 25,000, and called.

Phan then tabled the nuts with Q♥J♣, and Bosen flashed A♣Q♦ for top pair before the dealer turned it over.

"He had the right idea, he knew you were full of it," said one of the table to Phan, who didn't seem to care as he raked in the pot, which boosted his stack to around 135,000.

Player	Chips	Progress
Hoang Phan	135,000 35,500	35,500
Fabian Scherle	82,000 7,000	7,000
Peter Bosen	70,000 -35,000	-35,000

Mike Marquet: Q♦Q♠ All in
Viktor Blom: Q♣4♣

Blom had flopped two pair but was drawing dead to the set of queens that Marquet held. The irrelevant K♣ came on the river and Marquet had doubled up through Blom.
