The Pavilion is No Longer Ivey's Room

Phil Ivey is one of a string of eliminations leading up to the first break. His elimination came down when he raised preflop, getting called by the big blind.

The flop was a rainbow {10-}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The big blind check-called Ivey's bet of 450 as well as Ivey's all-in bet of 1,300 when another club came on the turn.

Ivey: {q-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The {6-} on the river was no help to Ivey, who will surely be quickly signing up to play another event.
