Heard it. *Kinda* true. More interesting is the story of the 70k pot he lost at bellagio when the dealer and floor (not the usual high limit floor, the bitchy fat older woman) told him he couldn't run it twice, after he and the other player had already agreed to it...

Ok... Yes the hand happened.
No, it wasn't 70k he called on the end.
Phil was doing his regular comedic schtick when he said he "should have just called" You've seen him play.
Verbatim: Phil said:
after about 20 seconds:
"maybe I should have just called"
30 more seconds go by
"yeah I should have just called"
Phil reaches into pot to retrieve the chips in excess of the original bet, as if to leave only a call...
... before he could do so the other player called.
Phil scoops with AJ. (The nuts)

If thats how it went down I dont see anything wrong with Phils play.
