The 4-million-chip club has a new member, and it's Phil "USCphildo" Collins.

This big pot began with Collins raising from late position, and it culminated with Anthony Miller getting the last 475,000 of his chips into the middle. He was ahead though, showing {K-Clubs} {K-Spades} to Collins' inferior {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}.

Inferior, that is, before the flop. But the dealer ripped off {A-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} on the first three cards, and Collins pulled himself into a big lead with a chance at the knockout. The turn {8-Clubs} and river {5-Diamonds} locked it up, and we now eyeball Phildo at 4.05 million, the newest member of the club.

By the way, Collins has the biggest, loudest rail of anyone left in the field.
