During the first few hands of Day 3, Pham Huy Hoang paid a double up to Takuya Sato with K-10 dominated throughout by A-K. This sent his stack plummeting to just 2 BB which he was able to double up and more shortly after. Just before the first break, Pham was all in again with A♣ Q♠, Ashish Munot called with A♠ 3♣, the board ran 10♠ 5♣ Q♣ 2♣ 8♣ for the nut flush. He is now up to 74k.
