Ivey Knocks Out Polk
Level 14
: 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante
From the under-the-gun plus one position it was Doug Polk who moved all in for right around 1.7 million chips. The action folded to Phil Ivey in the small blind and he asked for a count, but called before the dealer was done stacking down the chips. Tobias Reinkemeier folded from the big blind and the showdown went as following.
Ivey: 
Polk: 
The flop brought 
and Polk hit a pair, but needed a lot more to double up. On the turn the 
hit and nothing changed, the river was the 
and Ivey hit a straight. Polk's hand was mucked and Ivey raked in the chips. We are now down to 16 players and there will be a full redraw for the final two tables.
