Ghojehvand Doubles on Soft Bubble
Level 13
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
The pace has slowed down a little as the field is only two eliminations away from the money. Armin Ghojehvand was one card away from the door, but found a miracle river to survive.
The chips had gone in on a flop of 2♣8♥6♥, with Ghojehvand's 705,000 at risk against Phil Ivey.
Armin Ghojehvand: Q♥10♦9♣8♦ 
Phil Ivey: 8♠8♣3♠3♦
Ghojehvand had to crack the set of Ivey, and managed to do so as the runout of A♦7♣ gave him a straight.
Elsewhere, both Ben Lamb and Lautaro Guerra just took down small pots to boost their stacks, which left Dirk Gerritse as the short stack with around 1,200,000.
