On fifth street, Ivey and Provenzano checked. On sixth, Ivey checked and then Provenzano bet. Ivey called. On seventh street, Ivey check-called another bet from Provenzano.
Provenzano tabled the for a seven-four low. Ivey showed the for a pair of aces. Ishii showed the and only had a pair of sixes. Because he was all in and couldn't win either the high or the low, Ishii was eliminated. Provenzano and Ivey collected his chips and moved onto the next hand.
Phil Ivey was driving the betting the entire way on this one. On streets four and five, Ivey bet and Sharaskin called. On sixth and seventh, Sharaskin first checked and Ivey bet. Sharaskin only called sixth before he folded and seventh and Ivey won the pot.
The father and son combo of Doyle Brunson and Todd Brunson have been seated at the same table all day today. At the start of the day, Todd had the edge with 45,800 in chips to Doyle's 29,000. We just checked in on them now and saw that it's now Doyle in front. He has 49,000 to Todd's 15,000.
This is Doyle's first event of the 2012 World Series of Poker, opting to play a much smaller schedule than normal to keep the wear and tear off of his body. Between the two of them, over $9.5 million in live tournament earnings are represented. They also have a combined 11 WSOP gold bracelets and 67 WSOP cashes.
Yarron Bendor was down all the way to 4,000 in chips, but has since built his stack back up to 27,000 in chips. He did it all quickly over the course of about five or six hands.
