Phillips Screwed

Phillips, back on Day 1
Phillips, back on Day 1
Dennis Phillips and his opponent saw a {9-Hearts} {8-Spades} {4-Hearts} flop and Phillips bet out 21,000. Over to his opponent, and he moved all in for 58,000 total.

Phillips counted out the call, and then went into the tank as a Wall Of Media closed in on the table. Phillips continued to dwell, until the TV crew looked indescribably bored. Then he folded.

"Pocket tens," he said, as the Wall Of Media crumbled away into the Amazon Room. "You had to have me beat."

Phillips drops to 180,000.
