Todd Phillips Closing in on 250K

Todd Phillips limped in from middle position, the cutoff raised to 4,200, Phillips moved all in and the cutoff called. Phillips turned over {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} while his opponent tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. The flop was {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, pairing Phillips' queen and giving him the lead. The turn was the {7-Clubs}, the river was the {J-Diamonds}, and Phillips dragged another huge pot.

After the hand, the "Old School" and "Road Trip" director's stack was up to nearly 250,000.
