not that bad for him


same result as a 3-bet and a fold


Not really. Phillips limped, and the raiser made it 3x the blind. So he took down the blinds and a standard raise.

Also, we don't know what the raiser had. It could have been a steal attempt, but he may have had a hand. He mucked the hand only because he thought he won the pot.

Gabriel Vezina Eliminated in 38th Place ($178,8570); Martin Lapostolle Eliminated in 37th Place ($178,857)

Wow. We headed over to Joe Ward's table to get a fresh round of chip counts and saw what some of the players described as an "internet" hand go down. Gabriel Vezina opened the pot for 200,000 from middle position. Joe Ward called in the cutoff before Martin Lepostolle shoved all in from he big blind for 2.1 million. Vezina called all in for 1.2 million and then Ward, having both players covered, called as well!

"All in and two calls on Table 2!" What hands could have prompted so much action?

Vezina: {J-Hearts} {J-Spades}
Ward: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Lepostolle: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}

Lepostolle groaned when he saw Ward's kings. Vezina's reaction was a bit more sarcastic.

"Way to go, dealer!" he said.

Ward was pumped to see his opponent's hands, and even more pumped when the flop came {9-Spades} {K-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}. There was no sweat for Ward when the turn blanked {6-Spades}, leaving both Vezina and Lapostolle drawing dead.

Since Vezina had fewer chips than Lapostolle, he is the 38th place finisher. Lapostolle finished 37th. Both earned $178,857 while Ward earned a total stack of 9.8 million chips.

Rodman Sheds Chips to Ivey

Blair Rodman opened for 210,000 from middle position and Phil Ivey called from the big blind.

Ivey checked the {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} flop over to Rodman, who checked behind. The turn came the {5-Clubs} and Ivey led out for 300,000. Rodman raised to 700,000 and Ivey made the call. Both players checked the {7-Diamonds} on the river.

Ivey showed {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs} and Rodman mucked. He's just short of 10 million in chips, while Rodman is on the short stack with 1.2 million.



Sick

How would such a man celebrate his surviving more than 12 hours of play on the day?

"I'm heading right over to the Bellagio to play," Ivey smirked. "I think they're playing $4,000-$8,000 10-game mixed."

Half of The Magician's Chips Vanish

With the betting folded around to the blinds, Darvin Moon came in with a raise to 325,000. Antonio Esfandiari was in the big blind, and he came along with the call.

The flop came out Qd 3s 3c , and Moon tapped the table. Esfandiari took the opportunity to bet 480,000, but Moon was having none of it. He check-raised to 1,125,000, and Esfandiari went into the tank for a bit. After a couple minutes, he announced a re-raise, making it a total of 2,125,000. Within just a few seconds, Moon announced, "All in," and Esfandiari snap-mucked, shaking his head with a big frown on his face.

After that exchange, Esfandiari has plummeted back to 2,900,000, while Moon is up over the 12,000,000-chip mark.

Bluff over bluff maybe? Sounds fishy on a Q33 board

Do they have cameras on the table to view the cards? I would really like to see what each had.

You won't see it unless ESPN shows the hand in October
