Level 18
Stud Hi-Lo Eight or Better
Phil Ivey: 10?6?/2?4?9?Q?/6? 
Michael Martinelli: K?K?/10?K?7?3?/J?

Phil Ivey got his final few chips in on third street before Max Kruse pushed in his 120,000 or so chips on fourth street. Martinelli showed trip kings, while Kruse had split aces. Ivey needed to hit a flush or low to stay alive but failed to do so when he hit offsuit high cards.
Kruse did hit a low on seventh street to take half the pot, avoiding a double knockout by Martinelli.
