Bryce Yockey raised to 85,000 under the gun, leaving himself just 15,000 behind, and Phil Ivey called in the cutoff, as did Roy Thung and Jason Mercier in the blinds.
Action checked to Ivey on the 9♥10♥7♥ flop, and he bet 50,000. All three opponents quickly folded.
Yockey was forced all in from the big blind the next hand, the 47th since going hand-for-hand, as four opponents limped in to see the J♥3♠10♦ flop. Ivey then bet 50,000 from the hijack, and Nick Guagenti called in the cutoff.
Ivey checked the 6♠ turn and Guagenti bet 110,000. Ivey called, and Guagenti bet another 155,000 on the 10♠ river. Ivey again called.
Guagenti turned over K♠J♦J♣5♠ for a full house and Ivey mucked, while Yockey also tossed 9♦8♦6♥5♦ into the muck as he made his way to the exit on the money bubble.
