Carter Movin' Up

The board read {K-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {6-Spades} and one player checked. The next player bet 750 before Carter Phillips made the call. The first player folded.

The river was the {A-Spades} and action was checked to Phillips. He bet 1,500 and his opponent folded. That moved Phillips up to about 18,500.

Moments later, Phillips picked up another pot against the player that had bet the turn in the hand above.

Action folded to that player in the cutoff seat and he moved in for slightly less than 3,000. Phillips was in the big blind and made the call, waking up with two aces -- {A-Clubs} {A-Diamonds}. The all-in player held {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts}.

The board ran out {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {10-Spades} and Phillips won the hand. He eliminated the other player while bumping himself up to nearly 23,000.

Phillips mentioned that he is in this event for 13 (yes, 13) rebuys. That's a total buy-in of $13,150 if you're wondering. To profit, Phillips will need to come in at least 9th place.
