Ivey Hits Straight

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

We got to the table with three T1,000 chips sitting in front of Phil Ivey and his opponent and the board showing {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. The turn was the {K-Spades} and Ivey was first to act and bet. He was called. The river was the {5-Clubs} and Ivey again bet and was called.

"Straight," said the nine-time bracelet winner as he turned over {A-Spades}{J-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for Broadway and claimed the pot.

Freedman Survives in Four-Bet Pot

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Four players put in four bets each before the {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop. Dan Kelly checked from the small blind, Wendy Freedman put her last 200 in from the big blind, and the cutoff completed to 1,000. Greg Trelski raised, and Kelly called, as did the cutoff. On the {j-Diamonds} turn, everyone put in one bet before checking the {2-Clubs} river.

Kelly showed {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for aces with seven-ace low, and he chopped the side pot with the button's {a-Spades}{6-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for six-ace low.

For the main pot, Kelly's aces had been outran by Freedman's {k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for two pair, while Trelski still took the low.

Kost Scoops Kassela

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Nicholas Kost opened with a raise from middle position and was called by Frank Kassela on the button and Jim Pechac out of the small blind. The flop came {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Pechac checked to Kost who continued his aggression with a bet. Kassela and Pechac both called to see the {7-Diamonds} turn card. The action was the same — Pechac checked, Kost bet, and both players called.

The river was the {9-Clubs} and it was checked around and Kost scooped the pot with {A-}{K-}{Q-}{2-} for top two pair. Kassela, the 2010 WSOP Player of the Year, slipped to 23,100 after the hand.

Kal Raichura brings the top stack into Day 3 of Event #14: $1,500 Limit Omaha Hi-Low. The relatively unknown Canadian has 68,100, a slim lead over more well-known Russian Konstantin Puchkov's 65,800.

Lurking in the pack with 33,500 is none other than Phil Ivey, and he will be the true headliner today as we grind our way through 10 levels, paring the field down for the big money on Day 3.
