Phillips Drops a Pot
Level 3
: 75/150, 0 ante
With about 1,000 in the pot and a flop of [jh6hq], the player in the small blind checked and Bill Phillips bet 525. The player in the cutoff called, as did the small blind and then all three players checked the 
turn.
When the 
completed the board on the river, the big blind checked, Phillips bet 24,000 and the cutoff folded. The big blind made the call with 
for a pair of aces, and it was good as Phillips sent his cards to the muck unseen.
Despite losing that pot, Phillips is still up a bit from the starting stack with 24,000.
