Hand #123

Blinds 125k/250k/250k

Richard Philip opened to 500k with J♣9♦ and Michael Macy made the call with K♣7♣ to see an action flop of K♥9♣J♥...

Philip led out for 300k with his bottom two pair and it didn't take long for Macy to move all in with his top pair, which Philip snap-called. 

Macey would have to hit a king, seven, or running clubs to stay alive, but the runout of 9♦7♣ only improved Philip to a full house to score the pot, eliminating Macy as the runner-up for $44,420.
