Gioi Luong Eliminated in 3rd Place ($61,583)

Gioi Luong - 3rd Place
Gioi Luong - 3rd Place
Gioi Luong raised from the small blind, John Phan reraised from the big blind, and Luong called.

Luong took two cards and Phan stood pat. Luong checked, and Phan splashed chips in front of him, enough to put Luong all in. Luong made the call.

On the second draw, Luong stood pat. Phan fiddled with his chips as he contemplated what to do. "Okay, I break my hand," said Phan, asking for two cards. He then moved to turn over his hand, but was reminded one more draw was to come. "I thought that was it!" he grinned.

On the third draw, Luong again stood pat. Phan took two cards again. Luong turned over his hand: 8-7-6-5-2. Phan slowly peeked at what he had picked up...

Suddenly he stood up and shouted. He flipped his cards over: 7-6-5-4-2! Luong is out in third.
