Ivey: eliminated

Tom Dwan raised to 1,100 from the under the gun and the action folded around to Phil Ivey who moved the last of his short into the middle from the cutoff.

The small blind folded before Luke Thomas reraised all in from the big blind. Dwan mucked and the cards were tabled:

Thomas: {j-Hearts}

{j-Hearts}

{j-Clubs}

Ivey:

{7-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

Thomas soared further ahead when he made a set on the flop of {j-Spades}

{j-Spades}

{q-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

. The turn was a very sweaty {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

, giving Ivey the outs to the flush.

Thomas must have felt that Australia had turned their backs on him when almost all the railbirds begged for a diamond on the river.

It came up red, but in the form of the {q-Hearts}

{q-Hearts}

.

Another early exit from the Aussie Millions for Ivey, while Thomas moves up to 49,000 in chips.
