The Better Your Hand, The Better My Hand
Paul Phua limped in from early position and Siow Choon Tong moved all in for a bit less than 100,000. Gabe Patgorski then moved all in over the top for around 120,000. Action folded back to Phua.
"Aye yah," Phua said turning over the 
. He then turned over the 
and called quickly, laughing.
"Paul just slowrolled me," Patgorski said, calling over to the other table.
Paul Phua:
Gabe Patgorski: 
Siow Choon Tong: 
"That's ok, just put one eight on the flop," Patgorski said.
The flop did have an eight when it came 
, giving him a straight draw. He completed it on the 
turn. The river was the 
which was meaningless and Patgorski earned a near triple up.
"I trapped you," Phua said after the hand.
"That's ok," Patgorski said. "I wanted you to trap me. The better your hand, the better my hand."
