Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Phil Ivey just strolled past the PokerNews Live Reporting desk and took his seat at Table 365. Ivey was eliminated a few spots short of the money in Event #14: $1,500 Limit Omaha Hi-Low, and now he's debating whether or not to hop into the Event #15: $3,000 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em as well.
He was just informed that about half of the field has been eliminated in the six-handed tournament, and didn't know whether or not he wanted to double dip.
After some lobbying from his potential tablemates Tom Koral and David Williams, Ivey stood up and left.
"We did it!" Williams said, grinning "We got rid of him!"
Ivey cracked a huge smile and strolled off to hop into the noon event.
