Fifth street brought another bet from Ivey, a raise from Donev, a reraise from Ivey, and a call from Donev. On sixth Donev made the high board and led out, Ivey raised, Donev reraised all in and Ivey called. Donev turned up trip aces, besting Ivey's jacks and fives. Ivey couldn't boat up on seventh street and Donev dragged the pot, doubling his stack as we went to our first break.
Phil Ivey seems to be getting more cards than Hallmarks today, or at least it would appear that way as he seems to be involved in almost every hand since being whittled down to one table.
His last encounter was against Ivo Donev, the Chess Master flat-calling every street with
showing against Ivey's 
, before folding on 6th street.Ivey appears to be on a rampage at the moment and has increased his stack to 205,000. He currently sits in second place.

On the final hand of the round, Mark Gregorich raised it up from the button and Phil Ivey defended in the big blind.
After both players checked the
flop, Gregorich called two bets on the turn and 
river before finding his aces out-gunned by Ivey's flopped full house, 
.Gregorich now on around 80,000.

"No cheers for Phil, here?" he asked.
"I think everyone's bet against him!" joked Media Director Nolan Dalla.
"Really?" said Ivey, turning around to greet Dalla with a sly smile.
I caught up with the action on the turn, Ivo Donev check-calling a bet of 8,000 from Jeff Duvall on a
board. On the river, however, it was the Chess Master who became the aggressor, leading out for 8,000 to take the pot.
