[user40108]

Garrett Beckman

Garrett Beckman open-raised all in for 870,000 from middle position. Dennis Phillips called from the button and the blinds passed. With action complete, the players showed:

Beckman: {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

Phillips:

{Q-Clubs}

{Q-Diamonds}

Beckman caught a piece of the {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{4-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

flop, but not enough to take the lead. The {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

on the turn however put him ahead. Phillips needed a queen to win the hand and eliminate Beckman, but the river was the {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

giving Beckman an even bigger full house.

Beckman doubled to just short of two million while the hit to Phillips' stack left him with just shy of nine million in chips.
