Patrik Antonius straddled to $2k, so Phil Ivey restraddled to $4k. Naturally, Tom Dwan then re-restraddled to $8k. It only took two folds to get the action to the button already, and Wang Qiang called. The blinds and Antonius folded, and Ivey called. "Your option," the dealer said, motioning to durrrr. Only then did he decide to check with the floor to see if Dwan really had an option. Turns out he didn't. Apparently Aussie rules only permit one live straddled, so Ivey and Dwan's raises were dead.

Dwan was unhappy that the rule was going to be enforced on the current hand even though the whole table had been operating under the assumption that the straddles were live. But there was nothing that could be done about it, the floor said, and the dealer moved on to the flop: . Ivey checked, and Dwan bet $16,000. Qiang and Ivey both called. Ivey checked again when the paired the board. Dwan fired 38,000, earning a quick fold from Phua. But Ivey called. The on the river didn't appear to change anything, and neither player was interested in getting more money into the middle. Ivey tabled for jacks and sevens.

Dwan mucked, saying "I really wanted to shove preflop with my air. I really wanted to shove with my air."
