Suited One Gapper
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Marcy Jo Phillips raised and after Bob Koerntgen made the call, one shorty shoved for 20,000. They both called, going three handed to a 
flop with one player all in.
Phillips then check-called a 19,000-chip bet from Koerntgen and the 
turn came down. This time they both checked, but on the 
river, Phillips check-called a 25,000-chip bet from Koerntgen.
He showed 
having flopped a straight and turned a flush. Phillips mucked and the shorty went home.
