More For Phillips

A limped pot.

{6-Spades} {3-Hearts} {5-Spades}

Phillips checks and Goodwin bets 175,000. Phillips calls.

The turn is the {K-Spades} and both players check to see the {8-Spades} river. Phillips checks again and Goodwin bets 200,000, Phillips quickly calls and Goodwin can only show {J-Clubs} {9-Hearts}, losing to Phillips {10-Hearts} {3-Spades}

Action Already

First hand heads up, Marc Goodwin raised his button and Phillips called to see a {K-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} flop. Phillips checked, and Goodwin put in a massive 600,000. After a few moments, Phillips just flatted. An enormous pot already.

The turn came down the innocuous {7-Clubs}, and indeed they both checked. On to the {8-Spades} river and again they checked. Phillips turned over {J-?} {10-?} to take the pot -- and Goodwin showed him {J-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} for a massive draw on the flop that never came through.

Must Be Brighter

Carter Phillips has returned to heads-up play with an addition to his wardrobe -- he's now rocking some sunglasses. He has yet to use the sunglasses all tournament so we'll see if this changes anything.

Santiago Terrazas Eliminated In 3rd Place (€300,000)

The rail will most likely be much quieter now.
The rail will most likely be much quieter now.
After a few flopless hands, Carter Phillips raised his button to 210,000 and both Marc Goodwin and Santiago Terrazas called.

Flop: {K-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Clubs}

It checked around to Phillips, who now continuation bet 375,000. Goodwin flatted, but Terrazas now announced raise -- and pushed his 1.8 million stack into the middle. Phillips got out of the way -- but Goodwin wanted to know how much. After a moment, he pointed at Terrazas. "Call the clock!" he ordered. Then he called.

Santiago: {5-Clubs} {8-Clubs} for a flush draw
Goodwin: {K-Spades} {J-Clubs} for top pair

Turn: {5-Spades}

River: {4-Spades}

Ladies and gentlemen, we are heads up.

ElkY in the Building

Bertrand "ElkY" Grosepllier has stopped in on the rail to check out the action after getting some extra sleep. According to buzz around the tournament, ElkY had a pretty eventful night. He was out at a club with some friends where was having a blast before realizing he had a little too much to drink. He attempted to return to his hotel, but something stopped him -- a glass door to be exact.

When ElkY went to walk into the building he thought he was walking through an open doorway into the lobby, but instead smacked his face on the glass door and fell backwards. Rejected from the hotel, ElkY returned back to the club shortly thereafter and continued to have a good night.
