Over at Dennis Phillips' table, there's a nice amount of railbirds sporting the red St. Louis Cardinals hat and white, patched-up button down that Phillips wore at the Main Event final table last year. Not only are they watching Phillips play, in seat five is another member of their crew, Bryan Swift. Swift is decked out in the same apparel Phillips wore last year. With both players at the table, the railbirds are really getting their fill.

Gregory Brooks opened with a raise to 2,300, Carter King called, then Justin Anderson pushed all in for about 35,000 from the cutoff.
Bill Gazes thought for a long while from the button, before finally letting it go. Brooks and King instantly folded as well, prompting a groan from Gazes.
"I thought you had something, raising back-to-back," he said to Brooks who had open-raised the previous hand as well. "In theory," answered Brooks, offering no other information regarding his hand.
After the hand, Anderson asked Gazes what he had.
"Let me give you some advice," said Gazes with a smile. "When you want to know what somebody had, start by saying 'I had _____. What did you have?'" Thus ended the dialogue.
Gazes better have something soon -- he is down to about 42,000 right now.
