Phil Hui Mounts Wins Third Bracelet In $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha

Phil Hui may not be a household name even among poker diehards, but his success is being affirmed at this year's World Series of Poker (WSOP).

Hui has won his third bracelet courtesy of the Event #45: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha (8-Handed).

He mounted a comeback and is $311,782 richer as a result.

Here is how it went down courtesy of WSOP.com:

A key turning point was when both players got it in on a flop containing a jack and two sevens. Hui held three sevens and Tordjman held a flush draw and a wrap straight draw combination. The board runout only saw Hui fill up and Tordjman was left with a five to one chip deficit. A few hands later, Tordjman got in in preflop with king high and pair of tens in his hand while Hui had an ace high with a jack, eight, seven. The board ran out with an eight and a seven on it and Tordjman ended his impressive run in second place for $192,674.
