Ivey & Green Done and Dusted
It's the tenth anniversary of the iconic and game-changing 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event, and it's only fitting that two players who made the top ten in that event squared off. We're talking about Phil Ivey and Sammy Farha, who bubbled the final table and finished runner-up that year respectively.
We didn't see the hand develop, but awhile back a big one went down between the two poker powerhouses. According to Tony Cousineau, Ivey flopped middle set while Farha had top and bottom pair. The chips went in and Ivey, who had Farha covered, was primed to win a big one. The turn was of no consequence, but the on the river was as it paired Farha and gave him the winning full house.
Ivey was left with a short stack after that hand, and while he nursed it for a bit, he was recently eliminated in unknown action.
Meanwhile, three-time WSOP bracelet winner Perry Green has been eliminated from the tournament.
