Ivey Comes Then Goes

Phil Ivey came running out of one of the doors along the back wall and made it to his seat just in time to grab his cards. "I wanna watch this," said Andy Black from one table over as he stood up to see if Ivey would play the hand or not.

He mucked his first hand back, but on the second hand, Ivey put in a raise to 11,000 from under the gun. Stewart Yancik then reraised to 36,000 and was all in while everyone in the room began to surround Ivey's table knowing this could be some great action.

It folded around to Senovio Ramirez III and he fired in another reraise for pot. Ivey shifted his cards to the side and then slid his entire stack into the middle to make the call all in. The crowd grew around the table as the cards were exposed.

Showdown
Ramirez: {A-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {4-Diamonds}
Ivey: {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {5-Spades}
Yancik: {A-Hearts} {K-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {2-Clubs}

The flop came down {5-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {2-Hearts} and Yancik clapped his hands together as he flopped the wheel. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and the river the {9-Diamonds}. Yancik scooped the entire main pot, but there was still a side pot between Ivey and Ramirez.

"What happens with that?" said Ivey as he pointed to the side pot. "He scoops me, too, I'm out," he continued as he got up from his chair.

Ramirez scooped the side pot from Ivey to bust him. As quickly as he came, he was back out the same door he entered and on his way back to try and capture his second bracelet of the Series.

Almost Out-Witted

Chip leader at the start of the day, JD Newitt is down to his last couple of thousand after he was all-in with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} on a {A-Hearts} {7-Spades} {5-Spades} board. Robert Cambell went up against him with {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {2-Clubs}. It might have been a golf bag, but Cambell was freerolling the low. The turn {2-Hearts} put Campbell ahead in both with two pair and a live four and the river made no difference, another {2-Spades} completing Campbell's scoop of the pot.

Appleman Scoops

Kirill Rabtsov raised to 10,000 from middle position. Mickey Appleman reraised and was all in for 34,000 total on the button. Rabtsov made the call. Appleman held {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades} {6-Hearts} {5-Spades} and Rabtsov held {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} {9-Hearts}.

The board ran out {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} to give the seasoned professional Appleman a full house and the winning hand.

Shorties Back In It

Kenny Tam and JD Newitt have both made a slight comeback.

Tam raised to 14,000 and Newitt called all-in. Bloch called this bet and then also's Tam's shove.

Tam: {A-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}
Newitt: {5-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {4-Spades} {5-Spades}
Bloch: {5-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {3-Spades}

The board was {2-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

Newitt scooped his pot and Tam doubled in his side pot versus Bloch.

Newitt Out

JD Newitt was pretty much all-in from the big blind and went with {9-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {6-Clubs} against Robert Campbell's {A-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {A-Spades} {4-Spades} but couldn't get the pot on a {K-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {J-Spades} {K-Hearts}
