Phil Ivey Eliminated in 23rd Place ($21,413)
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Robert Tanita opened to 70,000 from the button and Phil Ivey raised to 230,000 from the small blind. Tanita made the call.
The flop came K?J?5? and Ivey, who had a bit less than 500,000 behind, quickly got the rest of the chips against Tanita who covered him.
Phil Ivey: A?A?3?2? 
Robert Tanita: A?K?K?10?
Ivey was in rough shape against Tanita who had top set with the nut-flush draw. He found no help when the rest of the board ran out 6?6? and made his exit from the tournament area while Tanita extended his chip lead over the rest of the field.
