Life of Ivey Doesn't Include 2009 NBC Heads-Up Crown

Phil Ivey - eliminated
Phil Ivey - eliminated
Vanessa Rousso's good fortune was Phil Ivey's bad fortune. Rousso woke up with {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs} after Ivey open-pushed his button with {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}. Her pocket tens made the best hand, jacks and tens, on a {7-Spades} {2-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {J-Spades} board. Ivey is out in Round Two; Rousso is through to the money. She'll play 2007 NBC Heads-Up Champ Paul Wasicka in Round Three.
