Phillips Powers On

Level 8 : 300/600, 600 ante

Joseph Phillips raised to 1,500 from the button, and the big blind player defended. The flop fell {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and Phillip's 1,200 continuation-bet was called. Both players checked on the {4-Hearts} turn before the big blind player fired a 3,600 bet on the {9-Clubs} river.

Big stack Phillips put the pressure on and raised to 11,000, which ultimately was enough to win the pot uncontested.
