- "I just had four hours sleep," said a sprightly Phil Hellmuth. "All these guys have been playing all day."
Hellmuth said these words to us after he three-bet Martin Jacobson off a hand with . "I've three-bet six out of nine times. If they three-bet me, I call every time!"
"I feel F#ck Ese," came his last comment to us in an Italian accent. - Phil Ivey's table broke and he has been moved between Roger Hairabedian and Jennifer Tilly. He wasted little time in battling against Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier, to the detriment of his stack.
We missed the action but the river of a board was checked through. ElkY opened for a straight and Ivey mucked.
