Giggle Giggle

Phil Ivey (yes, he's here -- arrived at the start of level 3) and long time friend Erik Seidel just tangled in a small pot that had both of them coyly giggling at each other from across the table.

(Omaha)
On a board showing {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}, action was checked around to Ivey who bet out 350. Everyone folded to Seidel who made the call and the {9-Clubs} fell on the turn.

A pair of checks sent us straight to the river, {2-Spades}, where Seidel checked once more, prompting Ivey to bet 700.

Seidel stared at Ivey from across the table, all the while exchanging a series of quirky smirks with his friend and foe. The hand culminated with a Seidel pump-fake fold/call after which Ivey tabled {A-?}{K-?} for top two pair. Seidel then revealed two queens for a set to take down the pot.

After the hand, Ivey was left with right around 7,900 while Seidel improved to just over 10,000.
