Ivey Eliminated

Level 9 : 300/600, 100 ante

Phil Ivey limped in the small blind and the big blind checked. Ivey bet 500 on the {2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop and his opponent called. The pair checked the {q-Spades} turn and the river was the {8-Spades}. Ivey bet 1,500 and his opponent mucked.

A short while later, he was gone. According to his tablemates, Ivey got his chips in with {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} against the {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} of Kimmo Eskelinem.

The flop came {q-Spades}{x-Spades}{x-Spades} and the turn was another spade, giving Eskelinem a flush, and sending the ten-time bracelet winner to the rail.
