Addamo Takes From Ivey; Lichtenberger Bowls a 269
Michael Addamo raised to 55,000 from middle position and David Peters called from the button before Phil Ivey came long from the big blind. The flop was 
.
All three players checked and the turn was 
. Ivey bet 100,000 and Addamo raised to 350,000. Peters folded and Ivey called to see 
on the river.
Ivey checked the river and folded without hesitation when Addamo committed all but his last T-5,000 chip.
The topic of conversation drifted to bowling throughout the hand after Andrew Lichtenberger shared that he recently rolled a 269 after a long layoff from the sport.
Chris Brewer and Jason Koon were impressed. Brewer claimed to have only broken 200 a couple of times in his life, and Koon said he's only done it once that he can remember. The players compared strategies and discussed the development of their hook.
"I should probably just be throwing a straight ball," Nick Petrangelo said.
