Phil Hui was the bring in and Dan Cates completed his king. Phil Ivey made it two bets with a ten and Cates called. Cates check-called a bet from Ivey on fourth street.
On fifth street, Cates bet and Ivey called. Cates checked sixth street and Ivey bet. Cates made the call and both players checked seventh street.
Ivey tabled 
for a pair of aces. Cates tabled 
for the same pair of aces and took down the pot with his king-queen kicker to Ivey's king-ten. With the lost pot, Phil Ivey now finds himself under with two million in chips after entering the last two days as chip leader of the tournament.
