It's Over! Phillips is an EPT Champion!
2 months ago
After trading small pots back and forth for the last series of hands Carter Phillips has won this event in one massive hand!
Carter opened from the button and Goodwin flatted from the big blind. The flop came down K
5
4
and Phillips cbet 310,000. Goodwin announced raise and made it 1,160,000. Phillips cut out the chips and thought for a moment before pushing them across the line.
The turn was the Q
and Goodwin paused for just a beat before announcing all-in. It was a huge overbet and when it was counted down we saw it totaled 4,295,000!
Phillips was stunned and clearly had a decision to make. He shook his head and went way into the tank. He tanked and tanked and tanked some more but eventually he came out with a decision, to call.
Both players were on their feet as we struggled to see the cards.
Goodwin: A
T
Phillips: K
J
Phillips chose correctly and was just one card away from his first major win. The river cooperated with the young American, coming the 5
, and the two players shook hands over the table.
Marc Goodwin pockets €530,000 for second while Carter Phillips takes €850,000, the trophy and a seat to this season's EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo.
It's always great to see a deserving champion and Carter Phillips is certainly that. He played brilliantly from Day 1 to the last hand and earns himself the rarely awarded PL.com Attaboy!
And with that we're done in Barcelona. We are not, however, done in Europe. We'll be killing the next week on the Spanish coast before rocking it over to London for the WSOPE and EPT London. Join us then if you know what's good for you.

Blinds Up; No Action
2 months ago
Our two heads-up players are back and the blinds have been bumped to 60k/120k. Things have slowed down noticeably though as we watch them trading the blinds back and forth.
Goodwin took down the largest pot since returning, opening from the button and winning with a standard cbet on an ace-high flop.

Phillips Back on Top
3 months ago
Goodwin opened from the button and Phillips three-bet from the big blind. Goodwin called and the flop came K
9
8
. Phillips followed up with an 800k cbet which Goodwin called.
The turn was the 9
and they both checked. The river was the 6
and Phillips paused before slowly pushing out 1.4 million. Goodwin seemed to freeze, looking like he wanted to call. After some more though, however, he opted to fold and Phillips takes back the chip lead.
It's about 9 million to 5 million now.

He's Back!
3 months ago
Marc Goodwin just got right back in this thing.
After a standard pre-flop raise from Carter Phillips and a call from Goodwin, the two were treated to a T
6
4
flop.
Goodwin checked, Phillips bet and the savvy veteran pulled the old check-raise out of his bag making it 975k total.
Phillips made the call and when the A
turn fell, Goodwin shoved. Phillips called instantly, but his 6
2
was no match for Goodwin's T
4
.
After the 8
river came down, Goodwin rode his two pair to a massive double that has pretty much drawn the two even in chips.

4
and Phillips cbet 275k. Goodwin called and they both checked the 7

Goodwin good for the win?
3 months ago
Marc Goodwin just moved into the chip lead after what appeared to be a rather strange move by Carter Phillips.
On a board reading K
Q
J
2
, the two got into a bit of a raising war with Phillips leading out for 325k, Goodwin raising it up to 775k and Carter Phillips re-raising 1,050,000 more.
"Do you want me to call?" asked Goodwin, getting nothing but silence from the American.
Eventually he did call and the river brought the J
.
Both players checked and Phillips insta-mucked, leaving Goodwin to take the massive pot and the chip lead holding just king-nine.
