Ivey Gets None

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 9

Omaha Hi-Lo

Phil Ivey opened from under the gun and was called by a player in the cutoff as well as Jason Papastavrou in the small blind.

Papastavrou checked following the 10♠6♣10♦ flop and Ivey led out. The cutoff player called while Papastavrou got out of the way.

Ivey bet again on the J♥ turn. The cutoff once again flatted.

Both players checked to showdown after the river came J♦. The cutoff tabled A♠K♦Q♦3♦, which was good enough to take down the pot.

Dan O'Hair

Level 9

Omaha Hi-Lo

Chris Tryba raised first-to-act and was called by David "ODB" Baker in the small blind and Bryce Yockey in the big blind.

Baker and Yockey check-called bets from Tryba on the 10♥4♥8♣ flop and 6♠ turn and Tryba bet again on the 8♠ river. This time only Baker called and Tryba turned over A♦10♣7♣2♠ for tens-up and the nut low.

Baker held A♥2♣ to tie the low, but lost on the high to give the lion’s share of the pot to Tryba.

Negreanu Hits the Rail

Level 8

Seven Card Stud

Daniel Negreanu: Q♣J♦/10x7♣2♣Q♦/5♦
Opponent: A♠J♥/4♠Q♥9♠Q♠/3♥

Daniel Negreanu was seen exiting the tournament area late on Day 1. He had been eliminated in a hand of seven card stud holding a pair of queens with a jack kicker against his opponent's pair of queens with an ace kicker.

Given the freezeout nature of this event, Negreanu will have to wait until next year to take another shot at victory.

Razz

Dave Stann: XxXx/AxQ♦ -folded on fourth street

Jens Voertmann: 10x7x6x/AxJx2x3x

Dave Stann completed and was called by Scott Lake and Jens Voertmann.

Lake bet on fourth and only Voertmann called. Lake then called a bet from Voertmann on fifth after Lake paired his five and both players checked on sixth and seventh.

“Seventy-six,” Voertmann announced as he turned over 10x7x6x. Lake rapped the table in acknowledgement and mucked — conceding the pot to Voertmann.

Omaha Hi-Lo

A player opened from middle position and David Benyamine defended in the big blind.

Benyamine put in a check-raise on the 9♥7♦8♣ flop with his opponent making the call.

There was no slowing down for Benyamine on the Q♦ turn as he bet again. Once more, his opponent called.

Level 8

A player limped in the small blind and Jesse Lonis raised from the big blind. The small blind called to see a flop.

Action checked to Lonis on the 10♠8♦3♥ flop and he continued. His opponent made the call.

Both players checked through the A♣ turn to the 2♠ river at which point the small blind led out. Lonis quickly tossed in calling chips. The small blind turned over 10♣5♠4♦3♣ for a winner to take some chips from Lonis, who still sits on one of the largest stacks in the room.
