Gary Tighe vs. David "The Dragon" Pham

/ Niveau 11: 500-1,000

Un joueur relance en début de parole, David "The Dragon" Pham suit depuis le bouton et Gary Tighe (arrière-petit-neveu de Babe Ruth) suit depuis le big blind. 

Le flop arrive [7d6c3h], it's checked to Pham who bets 5,100. Tighe raises to 10,600, the early-position player folds, Pham reraises to 23,600, and Tighe quickly calls. 

The turn card is the [Jc], and Tighe moves all in for 63,400. Pham has him covered, and goes into the tank for a while. Tighe promises to show his cards if Pham folds, but Pham says he doesn't care either way; once he makes a decision, he lives with it. 

Pham finally calls with 8-8 (pair of eights, overpair to the flop), but Tighe shows [KcJs] -- he turned a pair of jacks. The river card is the [9h], and Tighe wins a huge pot pour doubler. 

Gary Tighe  -  182,000
