Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey made it 16,000 to play from early position and got called by Bingjian Wu. A flop of {7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} brought a continuation bet of 23,000 by Ivey and another call by Wu.

When Ivey bet 55,000 at the {8-Hearts} on the turn, Wu tanked before calling. The river brought the {4-Diamonds} and an all in bet by Ivey, forcing Wu to put his tournament life on the line. Wu tanked again before making the call. Ivey showed {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} and Wu was eliminated. Ivey is now near 900,000.
