William Kang and Dao Minh Phu

Four players see a flop of X 7X 5X 5, Dao Minh Phu bets from UTG+1, William Kang calls from middle position, and the other two players fold.

The turn card is a X 9, Phu bets 3,000, and Kang calls.

The river card is a third X 5, Phu bets 10,000, Kang moves all in, and Phu calls. Kang shows X 9X 9 for a full house, nines full of fives, and Phu shows one card — a X 7 for a lower full house — before he mucks. Kang wins the pot to eliminate Phu.

William Kang  –  78,000  (390 bb)
Dao Minh Phu  –  Eliminated

Phu immediately bought in just as a new table was opening up, and coincidentally, Kang was moved to the same table, so they are now seated together once again.
