Pham knocks out Tan, badbeat kings


Despite having a decent run yesterday, Johnson Tan could not get any further when he shoved all in with his 20,800 chips and found a caller in initial raiser Tien Pham (he tanked for a while before calling).

Pham: 6 6

Tan: K K

The board ran 9 2 A 6, giving Pham a set, and with the river of 9 the board did not land a spade instead Pham improved to a full house and Tan’s kings were crushed. Tan bowed out of the Main Event.
