Ming Lee - 2nd Place
It's over! Phil Ivey has captured an incredible seventh World Series of Poker bracelet, his second this year, to the delight of the massive group of friends and fans on the rail here at the Rio.

The final hand came during a round of Stud-8 with Lee all in on third street. The boards ran out as follows:

Lee: {J-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{7-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{5-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Ivey: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

Phil Ivey made trip queens and the crowd cheered in delight at having witnessed this historic poker moment.

However, we also congratulate Ming Lee, who started the day short stacked and fought incredibly well against some of the greatest players the game has seen, to finish in 2nd place for a cash of $136,292.
