Ivey Also Busts Schindler

Level 10 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

"What was the action?" Steffen Sontheimer and Daniel Negreanu asked just after Jake Schindler had been eliminated, his cards still visible, while the pot was shipped over to Phil Ivey. Apparently, Ivey had limped the small blind and Schindler got it in from the big blind with the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} to get called by Ivey with the {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}.

The board came {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and both players hit a pair, but Ivey's hand ended up best to send Schindler to the rail.
