Young Phan calls the all-in bet of seat seven and says, “Merry Christmas, you’ve got queens, huh?” His opponent shows [7h7d] and Phan starts to laugh. He lets the rest of the table in on the joke when he flips over [7c7s]. The board gives Phan a scare when the [10d9d6hAd] paints the board red through the turn, but the [5s] on the river ensures a chopped pot. “I’m happy with a chop,” says Phan through a large grin as the table shares a laugh.
