Pham Wheels a Lucky Double

Level 24 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Edward Pham rivers the wheel
Edward Pham rivers the wheel

Edward Pham open-shoved 137,000 from under the gun and the action folded all the way to Jerry Van Strydonck who called in the big blind.

Showdown
Pham: {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Strydonck: {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The {q-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop gave Strydonck a pair of aces, but everyone was focused on Pham's hand.

"Gutterball and a backdoor flush draw!" John Andress exclaimed.

The {8-Clubs} on the turn was a brick, but the {2-Hearts} on the river gave Pham the wheel and he doubled to 290,000 chips.

Strydonck wasn't pleased, but he's still healthy with 460,000.
