Better Than Phil, Indeed

Level 12 : 300/600, 70 ante

"Andre_Hansen" opened for 1,200 and found callers in Steve "betrthanphil" Tripp and "Jack55." When the flop came down {K-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, Jack55 checked, Andre_Hansen bet 2,400, and only Tripp made the call. Both players proceeded to check down the {9-Spades} turn and {7-Clubs} river, prompting Tripp to flip over {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, which was good against his opponent's {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}.

Tripp is up to 70,000.
