Ivey Arrives, Ivey Departs

Phil Ivey just made an appearance over here in Event No. 10. It was brief, but we are able to bring you some details, thanks to our special correspondent Robert Williamson III, who happened to have witnessed everything.

Those of you following Event No. 8, the $2,500 No-Limit Deuce-to-Seven event, know that Ivey just minutes ago made it to tomorrow's final table in that one. Having already bought into Event No. 10, Ivey came over to the Brasilia Room to see what he could do with the chips he had left after being blinded off for the first four-and-a-half levels.

According to RW3, Ivey was only here for one hand of PLO. After some preflop action had built up the pot a bit, Ivey got all of his chips in the middle on a flop of J-5-4. Ivey showed A-J-10-8 for a pair of jacks, and his opponent turned over A-A-K-8 for the overpair. The turn was a trey and the river a deuce, and Ivey was out.
