Omaha-8
In a battle of the blinds, small blind Phil Ivey raised pre-flop and was called by the big blind and chip leader, Bill Chen. Ivey fired out a bet after the flop came down 
and fired again on the 
turn. Chen called each time to see the 
hit the river. Both players checked. Chen showed down two pair, aces and queens, 
, to scoop the pot.
Chen is now sitting behind 1,350,000. Ivey is hanging tough at about 580,000.
