Phil Tom Tearing it Up

Matt Graham, Phil Tom, and a third player capped the betting before the flop. The flop came all babies: {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Tom bet, and only Graham stuck around. The turn brought the {10-Hearts}. Tom again bet, and Graham folded.

Tom has more than doubled the stack with which he started today. He's now up to 35,000. Graham sits at 47,000.
