Another Pot to Uchida

[user75032]

The break does not seem to have changed John Phan's fortunes at all. He raised from the small blind, and Shun Uchida called in the big blind. Both players drew three cards. Phan checked, then called after Uchida bet.

On the second draw, Phan took two to Uchida's one. Again he checked then called Uchida's bet. Both players stood pat on the third draw, although Uchida thought about breaking his hand. The action checked down.

"You probably got it," said Phan. Uchida showed 9-8-5-4-2. Phan grabbed the top card off the deck and peeked at it. "You break, you win anyway." He mucked his hand and remains firmly fixed in third chip position.
