Ivey and Buddiga Double

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Within quick succession, both Phil Ivey and Pratyush Buddiga doubled up over on table three.

Ivey got his stack of 196,000 in preflop in a battle of the blinds with Erik Seidel.

Phil Ivey: {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Erik Seidel: {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and Ivey rivered a nine to stay in.

Soon after, Buddiga and Jack Salter were at it preflop, and it was a flip for Buddiga's tournament life and the remaining 279,000 chips.

Pratyush Buddiga: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Jack Salter: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The flop came {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Salter asked for spades. That hope was already destroyed on the {K-Clubs} turn, and Salter needed one of the remaining two nines in the deck in order to avoid a setback. It was the {4-Clubs} that fell on the river and Salter's stack was halved.
