Ivey Jumps In, Immediately Wounded by Aces

Level 6 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Phil Ivey was spotted in the room as he made his appearance in North Cyprus.

Immediately after taking his seat, he found himself in a preflop all in situation holding the {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} against the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} red needles of Umit Sadi.

The board ran out {4-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}{9-Spades} for no help to Ivey which secured the double up for Sadi and left Ivey with just a portion of the 100,000 starting stack.

Evgenii Sboev was already all in with 80,000 in the pot and a 25,000 side pot between Alessio Isaia and Karim Rebei as they went to the river on a board of {5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}.

Isaia bet 35,000 before Rebei shoved all in for 135,500. Isaia shot back in his seat and began muttering to himself as he went deep in the tank.

Several minutes went by as Isaia took a sip from his water bottle and started cutting out chips from his stack as he continued to ponder the decision. He eventually made a reluctant fold.

"Is two pair good," Rebei asked as he turned over {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Sboev showed {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} before making his exit as Rebei dragged in the massive pot.

A pot of around 70,000 had developed between David Nicholson in the big blind and an under-the-gun opponent on a board of {2-Clubs}{5-Spades}{6-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} when Nicholson shoved all in for around 72,000.

Petrushevskii fired out another bet of 28,000 and Wisbrod went deep into the tank. The clock was eventually called after several minutes, and just as the countdown reached zero Wisbrod slid his cards into the muck.

"Nice hand," he told Petrushevskii following the hand.

A massive pot of around 70,000 had already developed between Bruce Jones and Georgios Tsouloftas on a board of {2-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} when Tsouloftas bet 7,000 from the small blind.

Jones, in the big blind, raised to 50,000 and sent Tsouloftas deep into the tank for several minutes.

"What do you have, jacks," Jones asked his opponent as Tsouloftas continued to ponder the decision. He eventually decided to call.

"Good call," Jones said as he tapped the felt, showing {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for ace-high. Tsouloftas did, indeed, turn over {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} to take the pot and climb over 200,000.
