And I think Dennis limped with KK in an attempt to possibly trap Ivan, who hit a set of Jacks or had AA.

I'm willing to bet Demidov hadn't hit much on that, and wanted to test Phillips.

I'm guessing Phillips had Queens or something, and all the 'Ace vs Kings' talk talked him into a fold.

Shame on Chino for saying that he should of been quiet given the hand was a key one.

I cannot believe this isn't being televised live. So annoying having audio only.

Either way, it'll surely be very interesting to find out what they had. I remember seeing Chris Moneymaker bluff Sammy Farha in the 2003 final at heads up with King high when Farha had 9s. Amazing.

Hello to all my poker brethren.

Can anybody post the specifics of the hand being debated? (Chips stacks, flop etc)

Unsure of hole cards

Phillips limped under the gun then Demidov raised on the button, Phillips re-raised, Demiodov re-raised and Phillips calls.

Flop was

10 J 8 rainbow.

Phillips bet about 4 million which was about 1/4 of the pot and then Demidov moved all in.

I have a bad memory so could be some errors.

Cheers Slayer. I can see that being the most interesting hand from the FT. Have to say that it looks like Phillips has QQ there to me. Limp rr UTG narrows his range to about JJ+ and AK. Obviously on that flop he's not folding JJ or AA, I hope he's not folding KK there too. I don't think he's got AK there because I think he'd be willing to get it in pre to see all 5 cards, rather than leaving him in the horrible situation he had in the actual hand.

So, QQ left then.

Glad to hear that great minds think alike..HA!

Just a quick note to those who will be signing up to Full Tilt in the event of the GR Poker Invitational, make you sure you sign up through a rakeback affiliate! Actually, do this whenever you sign up to a site, the benefits are there in the long run.

Finally, we see a turn. And it's the Ace of Spades.

K Kim really needs to stick his stack in soon.

Out of interest, how'd you meet Barry Greenstein?

Dennis is this year's Philip Hilm.

I was in Barcelona last year and happened to walk into the casino, only to see they were playing a WPT event talk about star struck I got to meet:

Barry Greenstein
Eric Sidle
Patrick Antonius
Chad Brown
Annette Obrestad

Missed Doyle though he was there a few hours before signing his new book.

Nice! I'd love to meet Negreanu and Hellmuth (purely for the possibility of him blowing up) over a bad beat. I'd like to meet Doyle and Sammy Farha too.

We'll have action shortly with Kim...

I would love to meet Farha he seems like a nice chap when I've seen him High Stakes poker which should be back on the air in Jan.

Kelly Kim has 1million he has to move soon.

Raisy Daisy!

I think he's brilliant on HSP, and the table is never as entertaining without his banter.

I'm surprised Kim folded his BB. He really has very little to play with now.

I loved last season when he busted Mr Gold with his AA vs KK.

The new season is been filmed within the next few weeks I heard so should be aired early Jan/Feb can't wait.

What happened with Demidov and Schwartz? I had to leave for a minute!

Demidov had AK and Schwatz had K 10

Flop was K 10 something and pot ended on about 9 million going to Schwartz.

Demidov picked up a back door flush on the turn but missed it on the river and bet out and Schwartz insta called.

This could be it for Kelly he is the big blind with half his stack invested.
