Phillips Guns Down Two

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Alan Phillips picked up {a-}{a-} in the big blind when a player shoved holding {7-}{7-}. Phillips held on for the win.

The next hand, Jon Hoellein shipped for 75,000, and Phillips called from the small blind. The big blind folded, and again Phillips revealed {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}. This time, his opponent had {8-}{8-} and again the aces held.

Stoll Swats Two Flies

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Devin Stoll saw a player shove in the cutoff for about 30,000 and then the small blind jam as well for about 30,000 more. He elected to put both at risk with {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, but he was way behind the small blind's {k-}{k-}. The cutoff had {a-}{j-}. Stoll said he was feeling a five, but it looked like irrational confidence until a {5-} peeled off on the river to give him a set and two knockouts.
