Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Marcy Jo Phillips raised and after Bob Koerntgen made the call, one shorty shoved for 20,000. They both called, going three handed to a flop with one player all in.

Phillips then check-called a 19,000-chip bet from Koerntgen and the turn came down. This time they both checked, but on the river, Phillips check-called a 25,000-chip bet from Koerntgen.

He showed having flopped a straight and turned a flush. Phillips mucked and the shorty went home.
