If he wins, then he is officially the greatest poker player on the planet. Not that he isn't already.

Ivey KO's Goulding

Phil Ivey was first in from the button, and he made it 110,000 to skate. In the big blind, Kent Goulding put in a re-raise to 325,000, and Ivey called.

Heads up, the flop came Qs-4h-2h. Goulding checked, and Ivey fired a big tower of chips at the pot, enough to cover his opponent. Goulding called all in for his last 910,000, at risk for his tournament life.

Showdown
Ivey: Jh5h
Goulding: Qc7h

Goulding was in the lead with top pair, but Ivey's flush draw was live. The turn was a blank though, as the 9s was the wrong color. The river was the right color though, and indeed the right suit. The Kh spiked the board, improving Ivey to the winning flush and sending Goulding out the door.

With that win, Ivey is sitting pretty right at the 5,000,000-chip mark. Uh oh.

We'll Have a New Champion; Eastgate Out
Billy Kopp came in with a raise to 105,000 from early position, and Dennis Phillips made the call in the next seat over. Action came around to Peter Eastgate in the small blind, and he moved all in for 445,000 total. Both Kopp and Phillips eventually called to put Eastgate at risk. The board ran out 6d,Aceh,4h, JH,3H with the two live players check-checking it all the way down. Phillips missed everything, and Eastgate tabled Ace Diamonds,jack spades for top two. It was no good though; Kopp showed up 8H,8S , having rivered the winning four-flush. That's the end of the road for defending champion Peter Eastgate. He put on a great show, and he seemed to have the support of the masses as he made his second consecutive deep run, but he just couldn't get anything going today. His quest for a legendary back-to-back championship will come up about 75 places short.

It's good to see 2 top pros with big stacks this late in the tourney. I was pulling for Matosow and Hellmuth (even though he's a crybaby) last year, even though they were short stacks at this point.

Should he sound familiar?

And Ivey has a great shot at the final table it looks like.

If you've watched High Stakes Poker on GSN, you've seen him. He's been on ESPN a couple times.

If Antonio and Phil go out he's next in line. I probably wouldn't mind seeing him beat either of the 2 reppin the Saints hat.

Saints>Ivey>Antonio
