Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Tyler Phillips

Brian Appell opened to 2,300 from under the gun and Tyler Phillips was in the small blind and asked how much Appell had behind him before raising to 7,000. Appell moved all in, putting himself at risk for his last 10,600 and Phillips snap-called.

Brian Appell: K♣9♥All in
Tyler Phillips: 6♠6♦

Appell was behind when the cards were flipped, but he found a nine in the window on the 3♥3♦9♦ flop.

The 8♦ turn and 10♠ river didn't change the standings and Appell locked up the double.
