The Life of Ivey

Phil Ivey is trying to grind his way through this limit Omaha Hi/Lo field. He's also eyeing a platter of prop bets and considering which WSOP event he's going to play next. He was discussing several of these items with Howard Lederer.

Ivey is likely to be in the field for tomorrow's $5,000 NLHE shootout, but is worried that if he makes the final table of this event, the two will conflict. He noted he'd just have to quickly dispatch his first shootout table before returning for this tournament to start the final table.

It's going to take a lot of pots for Ivey to even make it to this final table. He did get one small scoop in a three-way pot, by betting the turn {5-Diamonds} {q-Diamonds} {a-Hearts} {10-Hearts} and taking the pot down uncontested. But the next pot Ivey played went all the way to showdown and resulted in a chop.
