Quoc Huy Phan Eliminated in 8th Place ($11,682)

Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Following an under the gun raise by Quoc Huy Phan, Alexander Puchalski flat-called in the small blind and checked the flop. Phan continued for 75,000 to pick up a call and saw Puchalski check once more on the
turn.
Phan bet 150,000 and while doing so, his stack of T-5,000 partly fell over. Puchalski eyeballed how many chips his opponent had behind and plunked in a stack of T-25,000 for half a million. Phan had some 325,000 total at his disposal and called it off.
