Phan Takes Lead in Huge Pot
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
After an under-the-gun limp and another limp, one player pushed all in for just 4,500. Ross Bybee made it 10,000 to go on the button, and Ryan Phan flatted in the small blind. The initial limpers called as well and it was five to the flop with four active as 
hit the felt. Phan bet out 18,000 and only Bybee called. Phan bet 20,000 on the 
turn, and Bybee again called. Both checked the 
river.
Phan turned over 
, and Bybee couldn't beat it. Neither could the all-in player and Phan scooped a huge pot to get to 200,000 and the chip lead.
