With a completed board of 9♣9♦6♠A♥4♥ already on the felt, James Mordue was all-in, and Rostyslav Sabishchenko bet 200,000 into the side pot against Jason Berilgen . After about a minute, Berilgen mucked his hand.

Sabishchenko rolled over 8♥7♦6♥6♣ for a flopped full house, and Mordue quickly showed his A♠Q♦10♠7x before exiting the table.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

As relayed to PokerNews by Matt Stout, Phil Ivey was eliminated following a series of hands. Earlier, Stout doubled through Ivey holding KxKx10x4x rainbow against Ivey's Ax9x8x5x with diamonds and spades.

The flop was 7♦4♥3♥ and Stout got his remaining stack in the middle. The turn 7♥ and river K♦ kept Stout in the lead from start to finish, leaving Ivey with a little over 100,000.

Shortly after, Ivey was all in again, this time with the 10♥7♣6♣5♣ against the A♣K♣K♠7♠ of Scott Eskenazi. The QxJx10x flop with two spades left Ivey all but drawing dead, and neither the turn nor river changed that.
