The flop landed {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{A-Spades} and both players checked to see the {8-Diamonds} land on the turn.

Justin Bonomo: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

Kahle Burns opened for 8,000 on the button and Phil Ivey unceremoniously shoved all his chips in with one hand from the big blind. Burns got the count and called without using a time extension.

Kahle Burns: {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Phil Ivey: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{6-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Burns sent over 78,000.

"I had ace-eight," Daniel Negreanu said with a laugh.

Kaverman Picks Off Soverel

Level 9 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Sam Soverel raised to 11,500 on the button and Byron Kaverman three-bet to 40,000 out of the small blind. Soverel called and Kaverman gave up his betting lead on the {6-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop. Soverel pushed forward 40,000 and Kaverman called.

The {9-Hearts} turn was checked through and the {10-Diamonds} landed on the river. Kaverman checked yet again but Soverel fired 90,000. Kaverman burned two timebanks before convincing himself to call, and the patient decision paid off.

Soverel showed {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for a bluff and Kaverman took down a nice pot with {A-Spades}{5-Spades} for a bottom pair.

From the cutoff, Phil Ivey opened to 10,000 and Brandon Adams called on the button.

Bryn Kenney called from the big blind, and then checked the {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades} flop. Ivey continued for 30,000, and Adams folded, as Kenney called.

The turn landed the {Q-Diamonds} and Kenney checked to Ivey who bet 70,000. Kenney announced he was all in, and Ivey called all in for an additional 115,000.

Phil Ivey: {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Bryn Kenney: {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

With Ivey drawing dead, he quickly made an exit from the PokerGO studio before the final card could be dealt.
