Perkins Shoves and Ivey Calls Off

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

"Rebuy!" we heard Bill Perkins yell from over at Table 4. Although he was standing, Perkins was merely joking around with good friend Antonio Esfandiari. "The rebuy's for later," Perkins said with a smile. Little did he know, he would get all his chips in on the very next hand.

We happened upon the action with approximately 18,000 in the pot and a board reading {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Phil Ivey had bet 15,000 and Perkins, who was to his direct left, put in a raise to 60,000. Ivey eyed up his opponent before making the call, and then he promptly checked the {5-Clubs} river. Perkins, who was bouncing up and down in his seat, then bet two green T25,000 chips for a bet of 50,000. Ivey responded with a quick check-raise to 100,000, and Perkins said, "All in." Ivey quickly called off and tabled the {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, and Perkins held the same Broadway straight with the {J-Diamonds}{K-Spades}.

We know chopped pots aren't overly entertaining, but it was the first all in and a call of the tournament, so we wanted to make note of it.
