After a flop of KdJc9c, Hai Pham bet 250,000 from UTG+1, Roy Young raised from middle position to 650,000, and Pham tanked for a while before he three-bet all in for about 1,000,000.

Young quickly called with JsJh for a set of jacks, and Pham turned over AdKc for a pair of kings. Pham needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the Qh, giving Pham additional outs with a gutshot straight draw, but the river card was the 7s. Young won the pot with his set of jacks to eliminate Pham in 33rd place.
