It's All About Ivey

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Over here in the Brasilia Room, there is really only one topic of conversation at the tables-- Phil Ivey's win in the No-Limit Deuce-to-Seven Event only moments ago. It's pretty safe to say that most of the folks on the losing side of those millions of dollars in side bets are in this room right now.

Greg Raymer Eliminated

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Pot-Limit Omaha:

Greg Raymer got the rest of his chips in on a 7-5-5 flop against Barny Boatman, holding A-5-X-X against Boatman's T-8-8-5. Both players flopped trips, but Raymer was ahead with a better kicker. The turn was a 9, giving Boatman an open-ended straight draw and he filled it on the river when a jack fell, sending Raymer to the rail.
