Phil Ivey completed with an eight showing and Matthew Rasco raised with a seven. Action came back to Ivey and he called. Both players pulled paint on fourth street and Ivey checked. Rasco fired out a bet and Ivey stuck around. Rasco pulled a second paint card on fifth, prompting Ivey to lead out with a bet. Rasco called for sixth street.
By sixth, both players had king-queen showing with Rasco holding the lower of the two. He led out and Ivey called. Rasco fired one last bet on seventh and Ivey plopped forward a call.
"You win," sighed Rasco.
Ivey fanned 
in the hole for a ninety-eight. Rasco flashed 
before tossing his cards into the muck. Ivey picked up the pot and now has about 23,000 in chips.
