Back-to-Back Winners for Phillips

Dennis Phillips
Dennis Phillips
We caught two hands with Dennis Phillips of the November Nine.

In the first, Phillips check-raised to 5,000 after his opponent bet 1,600 on a flop of {Q-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Phillips got called and both players checked the {8-Hearts} on the turn before Phillips led for 6,500 when the {5-Spades} hit the river. His opponent folded.

In the next hand, Phillips check-called for 1,500 on a flop of {10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and check-raised to 7,000 after his opponent bet 3,000 when the board paired with the {10-Hearts}.

Again, Phillips got called and both players checked the {K-Hearts} on the river before Phillips turned oer {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs} for trips. His opponent mucked and Phillips now has 63,000 chips.
