Phillip Corion Busts in Massive Pot

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Phillip Corion

We picked up the action on a flop of {10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} as Phillip Corion checked from the big blind. Craig Sewell in early position made a bet of 16,000 and Gareth Mcintosh raised it to 36,000 from the hijack. Corion asked how much Mcintosh had behind approximately, and announced a three bet to 85,000. Sewell made the call, Mcintosh folded.

The {K-Spades} hit the turn and Corion moved in. An exact count wasn't done by the dealer (but we estimated it at around 90,000) as Sewell instantly called. You could hear the table sigh as the cards were opened.

Phillip Corion: {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Craig Sewell: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}

Corion needed the board to pair on the river to survive, but a blank {8-Hearts} appeared instead and he had to get up from the table and leave the tournament room.

With Corion's exit the tournament is down to 49 players, just 2 away from the money. Sewell is one of the biggest stacks in the room.
