Matt Kirby opened to 160,000 on the button, Paul Phillips three-bet to 270,000 from the small blind, and Kirby called.

The dealer fanned {7-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, and Phillips led out for 215,000. Kirby tank-called.

The turn was the {j-Clubs}, Phillips led again - this time for 305,000 - and Kirby made the call.

The {3-Hearts} completed the board, and Phillips grabbed a handful of chips, firing 415,000. Kirby sat quietly for half of a minute, then announced all in, making it 1.6 million.

Phillips slammed the chips he was riffling with his hand on top of his stack and looked at Kirby. He then turned his attention back to the board, thought for close to a minute, and called. Kirby tabled {6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for the nuts, and Phillips showed {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} before exiting.

Phillips will earn $38,834 for his eighth-place finish, while Kirby now has the chip lead with 6.7 million chips.
