With about 13,000 in chips alread in the middle on the {10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop, Phil Ivey led with a bet of 7,000. Antonio Esfandiari raised to 100,000, which was enough to put the third player in the hand, Chris Moore, all in along with Ivey. Moore tank-folded, then Ivey tank-called.

Ivey showed the {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a combo draw, looking for a seven or a club. Esfandiari held the {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for top and bottom pair.

The turn was the {Q-Diamonds}, giving Ivey more outs with any jack now giving him a straight as well. The river was the {5-Spades}, though, and Ivey had missed. He was eliminated while Esfandiari vaulted up to 285,000 in chips. Ivey had already used his single allotted re-entry, so he will not be able to play this event anymore.
