Two Pots Keep Ivey in the Hunt
Omaha Hi-Lo
Just before the level went up, Phil Ivey was involved in two Omaha Hi-Lo hands that saw him commit his paltry stack.
In the first, the big blind bet a 
flop, Scott Seiver called and Ivey called off his last 100 from the button. Seiver proceeded to call bets on both the 
turn and 
river before showing 
. The big blind revealed the 
and he and Seiver chopped the side. Ivey then tabled the 
for trip queens and half the main pot.
Not long after, we found Ivey all in and three other players in the hand with a board reading 
. Allen Kessler led out with a bet on the river and the two players in between him and Ivey quickly folded.
"Good game," Seiver told Ivey knowing that Kessler only bet big hands. Sure enough, Kessler tabled the 
for rivered trips. Without saying a words Ivey rolled over the 
for a full house.
"Ivey just wakes up with aces," a player said in disbelief.
"How much do you have?" Ivey then whispered to Seiver.
"4,400," was the response.
"Me too," Ivey said.
