Ivey Doubles

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey

The crowd around one of the feature tables swarmed a bit closer. Seeing as it was Phil Ivey's table, we rushed to the scene to see what was happening. When we arrived, the dealer and floor staff were verifying Ivey's chip count at a little over 100,000 and taking it from the stack of Rajkumar Ramakrishnan.

Ivey's {K-}{Q-} was the only one displayed on the final {K-}{J-}{2-}{7-}{9-} board, and Ramakrishnan sent over the chips. When it was all said and done, Ivey stood with over 250,000, while Ramakrishnan was kicked back to 267,000.

On Broadway

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
We're certain that these two are smarter than a fifth grader.
We're certain that these two are smarter than a fifth grader.

Nate Silver and two opponents took a flop of {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. The action checked to a player in middle position, who fired 10,500. Only Silver called.

The turn was a repeat king - the {k-Hearts} - and both players checked.

The {4-Spades} completed the board, Silver bet 17,000, and his opponent called. Silver turned over {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for Broadway, and his opponent flashed {a-}{j-} before mucking.

With the pot, Silver is back over 200,000 chips.

Nice One for Ivey

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

With 9,000 in the pot and a flop of {2-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, Phil Ivey checked from the big blind and his sole opponent bet 6,000 from middle position. Ivey called and then turned right around and led out for 17,000 on the {3-Hearts} turn. His opponent made the call and then both players checked when the {9-Hearts} river put four hearts on the board. Ivey tabled {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and it was good as his opponent sent his cards to the muck.

Sylvia & Glazier Gone

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

We didn't catch their bustouts, but we can confirm that both Jesse Sylvia and Jackie Glazier have been eliminated from Table 24, which is home to big stacks Man Hei Lam and Scott Wilson. It's also now home to 2010 Aussie Millions champ Tyron Krost, who sat down in Glazier's former seat with a stack of 128,000.

Grigg Tanks with the Second Nuts

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

With around 9,000 in the pot and a flop of {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}, an unknown player in the small blind checked and Tom Grigg bet 5,700 from the button. A call was made and then the dealer burned and turned the {8-Hearts}. The small blind checked once again, but this time he woke up with a check-raise to 30,000 when Grigg bet 13,700. The latter thought for a few moments before calling, and that brought about the {2-Clubs} on the river.

The small blind kept the pressure on by betting 35,000, and Grigg, who only had about 35,700, hit the tank. He thought for a solid minute before tossing in a call and the small blind showed the {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for a missed straight. Grigg then tabled the {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for the second nuts.

Richard Ashby, who was seated to Grigg's right, asked what took him so long. "He could have had {Q-}{9-}," Griggs replied.

Collado vs. Pangleng Over at Table 24

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

After Man Hei Lam had opened for 5,000 and Jan Collado called from the hijack, Ang Pangleng three-bet to 15,000 from the button. The blinds both folded, as did Hei Lam, and then Collado made the call. The latter then checked the {9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop and Pangleng wasted little time in betting 26,500. It was enough as Collado released his hand.

Warner Out

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

This one is also from quite some time ago, but we got word of Ashley Warner's bustout. Rajkumar Ramakrishnan raised to 4,500 after which Warner made it 14,000 and the initial raiser called.

The flop brought {2-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Warner bet 10,000. Ramakrishnan decided to raise it up to 50,000 and Warner proceeded to move all in. Ramakrishnan called.

Ramakrishnan: {K-}{8-}
Warner: {9-}{9-}

The turn brought the {7-Clubs} and the river the {Q-Spades} eliminating Warner.
