Phillips Continues Where He Left Off

David Rheem opened with a preflop raise to 225,000 and Dennis Phillips made the call in middle position. The action passed to Darus Suharto on the button who popped it up to 825,000 to go. Rheem let it go and Phillips called for the second time in the hand.

The flop landed {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Phillips led out at the pot for 700,000. Suharto thought for a moment and decided to release his hand as Phillips mucked.

In the first significant action of the outside table, Dennis Phillips extends his chip lead to 13.2 million with Suharto falling to 3.5 million.
