Jeffrey Yass opened from middle position and Andrey Zaichenko defended from the small blind. After the big got out of the way, the flop ran out 
and Zaichenko check-called a bet. The Russian then checked the 
turn and folded to a bet from Yass.
It wasn't much of a hand, but it gave us the perfect excuse to update you on their respective counts.

Daniel Negreanu, who started the hand with only 3,200 in chips, raised preflop. Jameson Painter made it three bets, and Pat Pezzin called. Negreanu then re-raised all in, and both other players called. The flop came 
, and Pezzin bet after Painter checked. Pezzin bet again when the 
fell on the turn, and this time Painter released his hand. The remaining players turn up their cards.

We didn't catch Phil Ivey's elimination hand, but his fellow team member Mike Leah was kind enough to fill us in on what happened.
According to him, Ivey raised with 
suited from early position only to have Gary Benson three-bet from the big blind. Ivey called, leaving himself just 1,000 behind, and then called off when Benson led the 
flop. Benson rolled over for a flopped set, and Ivey was eliminated after he wafted his gutshot draw.
