Hand #122 - Dennis Phillips

Peter Eastgate has the button in Seat 9. Dennis Phillips and Ylon Schwartz, the small blind and big blind, take an unraised flop of {2-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}. Phillips checks to Schwartz, then calls a bet of 1 million from Schwartz.

Both players check the {10-Spades} turn, taking us to the river, which is the {5-Hearts}. Phillips bets 1.5 million and is quickly called by Schwartz. Phillips turns over {K-Hearts} {8-Spades} for a pair of kings, which is the winner.

Both players now have approximately 20 million in chips.
