Patrik Antonius vs Jason Koon: $1,029,600

Jason Koon raises from the button with QcJh to $20,000 and Paul Phua calls from the Small Blind with 3c3s. Patrik Antonius finds JsTs in the Big Blind and decides to squeeze to $86,000. Both call. Pot: $345,000.

The flop is Qd-4s-5s and gives Patrik a flush draw and Jason Top Pair with a decent kicker. Antonius bets $120,000 and Koon makes a quick call. Pot: $453,600.

On the turn 6s Patrik binks the flush and Jason is already drawing dead. Antonius now checks to Jason and he wisely checks behind.

The river 4d is a pretty safe and good card for Koon as he now beats a couple of two pair combos. Patrik bets $330,000 and after checking the turn, Jason quickly calls and a massive $1,029,600 Pot goes to Patrik Antonius.

Paul Phua vs Sam Greenwood: $1,135,800 Pot

Episode 5 starts of with a bang. Sam Greenwood makes a loose open from UTG with 5s4s and gets 5 callers.

There are already $68,400 in the pot preflop and the flop brings 7c-6s-Ks. In a 5 handed pot with a flush draw and multiple straight draws this spells action!

It checks to Greenwood, who has hit a dream flop for his hand with an open-ended straight flush draw and he goes ahead and contibets $22,000.

Action folds to Phua in the Cutoff, who also flopped a flush draw with QsTs. Although there are still two players behind him Phua decides to make a big raise to $100,000 with the intention to win the pot straight away. If he gets called he still has outs to the flush. This is an interesting, but dangerous play as he has to fold when someone goes all-in, on the other hand he disguises his hand very well. The other 3 players fold and Sam makes the call.

The turn Js is the absolute gin card for Phua as it makes both players the flush. Greenwood now checks to Phua. Paul bets $140,000 and Sam just calls. There are $500,400.

The river 4c is a blank and Sam checks again. Paul bets almost ¾ Pot with $317,700 and Sam instantly calls just to see the bad news. A massive cooler, but Greenwood manages to lose close to the minimum, where other players would have gone broke.

Paul Phua vs Tom Dwan: 2,353,500 Pot

The biggest pot of the session was also one of the biggest televised pots of all time! Phua straddles to $12,000 and Dominik Nitsche open raises from CO to $30,000 with KcQd. Tom Dwan finds AsQh in the big blind and 3bets to $120,000. The action comes back to Phua in the straddle, who looks at Pocket Aces!

Another dream scenario for Paul as a big raise looks like he only wants to defend his straddle. He raises to $320,000 and Nitsche quickly gets out of the way. Dwan is in a tough spot here as he could think Phua is taking advantage of him and is making a play out of the straddle. Tom thinks for around three minutes and then announces All-In!

Paul of course snap calls and there are an incredible $2,353,500 in the middle and “durrrr” is drawing really slim here. The flop brings 7h-Kc-4d and after the 3h on the turn Tom is already drawing dead and one of the biggest pots of all time goes to Paul “MalAcesia” Phua!
