Carter Phillips raised to 15,000 from early position and Gianluca Benvenuto called on the button as did the big blind. The flop was 
and Phillips check-called a 25,000 Benvenuto bet whilst the big blind got out of the way. The turn was the 
and Phillips bet 45,000 and Benvenuto raised to 105,000. Phillips had around 370,000 in front of him and he made the call. The river was the 
and Phillips checked to Benvenuto who moved two towers of yellow chips across the line. Each tower was 100k and Phillips only had around 265,000 in front of him. He thought for a very long time before deciding he was good and he made the call.
Benvenuto turned over 
for the bluff and incredibly Phillips mucked his hand. He had correctly deduced that Benvenuto was bluffing but he must have only had a high card hand himself. Phillips was visibly fuming and now has 65,000 left.
