Phillip's Finding Chips

Dennis Phillips
Dennis Phillips

A player in middle position started a recent hand out by making it 1,200 to anyone who wanted to see a flop. A player in late position made the call, as did Dennis Phillips in the big blind.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and all three players knuckled the table for checks. A {9-Diamonds} on the turn saw a repeat of action with the three players checking.

The {7-Spades} on the river saw Phillips wake up and bet 3,000. The middle position player folded and the late position player made the call.

Phillips tabled {j-}{9-} for the straight and his opponent mucked his hole cards. While raking in the pot Phillips said "Neither one of you wanted to bet!?" acknowledging that he could have won a bigger pot.
