Hand #24 - Chino Rheem

Scott Montgomery has the button in Seat 4. Everyone folds in front of Dennis Phillips, who limps in. He takes an unraised flop with both of the blinds -- Darus Suharto and Chino Rheem.

All three players check the flop of {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {9-Clubs}. Suharto is first to act on the {6-Clubs} turn. He checks to Rheem, who fires a bet of 400,000 into the pot. That bet sends Phillips into the tank for roughly a minute before he elects to call.

Suharto folds, leaving us heads up to the river {7-Spades}. The action quickly goes check, check. It's another blow for Phillips when Rheem shows {j-Clubs} {8-Spades} to take down the pot.
