Stud Hi-Lo

Phil Ivey was tanking facing a bet on the end from Eli Elezra. Both players had formidable boards.

Eli Elezra: {x-}{x-} / {a-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{a-Clubs} / {x-}

Ivey dropped in calling chips and Elezra announced aces full, tabling {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. Ivey slowly mucked.

2-7 Triple Draw

Then, Ivey raised on the button and Phil Hui defended big blind. Hui took two and Ivey three and Hui tossed in a bet when he saw he was ahead in the draw. Ivey called. Both players improved by one and Hui bet again. Ivey raised this time. Hui three-bet it and Ivey called.

Hui patted and checked, with Ivey needing one. Ivey checked it back and couldn't beat {10-}{7-}{5-}{4-}{2-}.
