Phillips Extends Lead

Dennis Phillips

Jason Riesenberg opened with a raise from under the gun to 275,000. David Rheem called on the button, as did Dennis Phillips in the big blind.

The flop came {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and the action checked to Rheem, who fired 400,000. Phillips then made a check-raise to 1 million. Both opponents folded and Phillips takes down another pot to extend his chip lead as his stack balloons over the 15 million mark.
