Phil Ivey Eliminated in 6th Place ($133,461)
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Phil Ivey moved all in from under the gun only to see Phil Hellmuth re-jam from middle position. The remaining players got out of the way to put Ivey officially at risk.
Phil Ivey: K♦10♦
Phil Hellmuth: A♦A♥
Hellmuth had picked up rockets at an opportune moment to leave Ivey on the ropes. The 4♠Q♥4♥ flop brought no immediate help to the at risk player though the J♥ turn did give Ivey a straight draw. It did not come in on the 3♣ river, sending Ivey to the payout desk in 6th place and ensuring that his hunt for an elusive eleventh bracelet will continue.
