Ivey Watches The Big Game
Apparently the technicians were unable to get the Lakers game for Phil Ivey on the monitor at the tables. Instead, two technicians have brought a new TV, including stand, over to the tournament area so that Ivey can watch the game.

Oppenheim Surging

After Erik Seidel bet on fourth street, David Oppenheim became the aggressor on fifth street and bet the whole way with Seidel calling him down.

Seidel had {J-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} showing but mucked when Oppenheim tabled ({2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{K-Clubs}) {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{K-Spades} for kings and fives.

Seidel falls to 62,000 while Oppenheim is storming up the leaderboard and now holds 145,000 in chips.
