Scotty Nguyen was betting the whole way, even before the cards came out, and Phil Ivey called him down until fifth street, when the last of Phil's chips went into the pot. Ivey showed {3-Hearts} {3-Spades} {6-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {9-Hearts} to Scotty's {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}. Ivey's hand didn't improve but on the river Nguyen caught the {A-Diamonds} to give him a pair and that was good enough to send Phil Ivey out of the tournament in 12th place.
