Farmer Phil Looking to RunGood
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
Grand Island, Nebraska's Phil Mader is no stranger to poker. He may be a farmer by trade, but he's built a successful side gig in poker as well having amassed $461,277 in tournament winnings. His biggest? That'd be $185,694 for his 43rd-place finish in the 2013 World Series of Poker.
In a recent hand, an under-the-gun player limped and Mader raised to 475 from the cutoff. The player in the big blind called, as did the limper, and three players saw a flop of 
. The big blind bet 600, the under-the-gun player folded, and Mader called to see the 
turn. The big blind bet again, this time 850, and it did the trick as Mader opted to release his hand.
