Ivey Starting to Make Some Noise

After what has been a very quiet start for Phil Ivey, this level seems to have awoken the beast. Ivey has been not afraid to put his chips in the pot, winning sizable pots from both Jeff Shulman and Steve Begleiter.

Could it be that Ivey is starting to get a read on his opponents after five plus hours of play, or is the deck starting to break even? With 16 million in chips, Ivey has more chips than he has had at any time during this final table.

With the dinner break less than ten minutes away, it will be interesting to see how the break effects Ivey's newfound momentum.
