ibuddy 0 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 There are 30 minutes left in Level 29, with blinds at 80,000-160,000, with a 20,000 ante. Phil Ivey starts with the button, and in heads-up play, the button has the small blind and acts first before the flop.Shuffle up and deal!A Bit of TriviaOne more look at the official chip counts:Quinn Do - 2.48 millionPhil Ivey - 10.82 millionIvey has a 4.36-to-1 chip lead, but Quinn Do still has room to maneuver. And here's some interesting trivia: In Phil Ivey's previous seven WPT final tables, he has never eliminated a single player.He has just eliminated his first two players, and now he's heads up with a huge chip lead. If he can bust just one more, he'll finally have the WPT monkey off his back. Link to post Share on other sites

Ko8e34 0 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Hand #100: Quinn Do has the button, he limps for 160,000, Ivey raises to 560,000, and Quinn calls. The flop comes A86, Ivey bets 700,000, and Quinn thinks for about 30 seconds before he calls, leaving himself just 1.02 million behind. There is already 2.92 million in the pot.The turn card pairs the board with the A, and Ivey moves all in. Quinn goes into the tank, shuffling his chips as he ponders the situation.After four minutes, Quinn quietly says, "I call."Ivey shows A8 for a full house, aces full of eights, and Quinn dejectedly shows 98 for two pair, aces and eights. No card can help Quinn here; he is drawing dead. (The meaningless river card is the 4.)Quinn Do is eliminated in second place, earning $909,400.History is made as Phil Ivey wins the 2008 WPT L.A. Poker Classic, his first WPT title after reaching a record eight final tables. Ivey earns $1,596,100 and a huge trophy from the Commerce. Permalink | Comments(0) Link to post Share on other sites
