Phil Your Boots

We joined the action on the {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop where Phil Galfond check-called a bet, before checking the {3-Hearts} turn.

His opponent fired again, this time to the tune of 3,000, leading to a raise from Galfond who put his opponent all in for his the remaining 9,000 he had behind.

A call later and the cards were on their backs, Galfond in piping hot water with {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} versus {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}.

Galfond, however, must be a Monopoly fan as he duly pulled out his "Get Out of Jail Free Card" to spike a {10-Spades} on the river.

The scalp, and the pot, were both his, resulting in an increased count of 37,000.
