It's folded around to Jesper Hougaard on the button who makes it 3,200 to play. Tony Phillips quickly makes it 10,600 from the small blind. Hougaard asks Phillips what he has behind and when he hears it's 81,000 he makes the call.

The flop comes {Q-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} before Tony leads out for 16,500. Hougaard plays with his chps before raising it up to 33,100. Instantly Phillips moves all in and just as quick Jesper folds adding, "Nice bet," to his opponent. Phillips responds with, "That's how we play Omaha in England!"

Tony Phillips up to over 130,000 now.
Jesper Hougaard down to around 70,000.
