On a flop of 10h6d3s, Marcus Stein checks from the big blind and Brian Phillis bets 400,000 from middle position. Stein calls and the turn is the 2h.

Stein checks again and Phillis bets 600,000. Stein moves all in and Philis quickly calls. Phillis is all in for 1,800,000 and shows KsKd.

Stein tables 6s6h, good for bottom set and is one card away from dragging a massive pot. The river is the Jc and Phillis hits the rail as Stein becomes one of the top stacks remaining.

Phillis takes home $3,392 for his run at the Hard Rock.

Marcus Stein – 6,600,000
Brian Phillis – Eliminated
