Goodwin's Check-Call Strategy Backfires

[user46392]

Phillips raised from the button and Goodwin flat-called.

Goodwin check-called 275,000 on the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

{A-Diamonds}

flop before they both checked the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

turn. The turn came down the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

and this time Goodwin check-called 500,000 -- only to muck when Phillips turned over {J-?}

{J-?}

{7-?}

for rivered trips.

"Nice," said Goodwin. He didn't mean it though.

Phillips: 9,745,000
Goodwin: 4,630,000
