Flush Over Flush Sends Ivey Out the Door
Phil Ivey got off to a hot start in this tournament, but he cooled off as things dragged on.
In what would be his last hand �� at least on his first bullet �� Ivey called from the button after Jeff Rossiter had raised from the hijack and Fedor Holz flatted the cutoff. Both blinds folded, the flop came down 
, and Rossiter led out for 14,500.
Holz folded, Ivey called, and the dealer burned and turned the 
. Rossiter bet 32,000, Ivey called, and the 
completed the board on the river. Rossiter proceeded to move all in and Ivey wasted little time in dropping in his last 91,000. Rossiter rolled over the 
for a runner-runner flush, and Ivey flinched before showing a flush of his own, albeit an inferior one with the 
.
Ivey didn't appear to be interested in reentering tonight, but something tells us he'll take another crack at it tomorrow.
