Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Phil Ivey moved all in from under the gun only to see Phil Hellmuth re-jam from middle position. The remaining players got out of the way to put Ivey officially at risk.

Phil Ivey: K♦10♦
Phil Hellmuth: A♦A♥

Hellmuth had picked up rockets at an opportune moment to leave Ivey on the ropes. The 4♠Q♥4♥ flop brought no immediate help to the at risk player though the J♥ turn did give Ivey a straight draw. It did not come in on the 3♣ river, sending Ivey to the payout desk in 6th place and ensuring that his hunt for an elusive eleventh bracelet will continue.

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Short-stacked Brandon Steven moved all in preflop for his last 900,000 but then Phil Ivey shoved over the top to isolate.

Brandon Steven: A♥5♥
Phil Ivey: K♥9♦

The flop came out 8♣A♠10♠ to push Ivey further into the lead with top pair but the turn J♥ gave Steven some hope with some queen outs. Unfortunately, the 10♥ on the river did not do it and he was eliminated in seventh place.

Marc Foggin: A♣2♣
Justin Zaki: A♠10♥
