Omaha 8:

Jeff Lisandro limped in, Sherkhan Farnood completed the small blind and Phil Ivey checked his option. The flop was {K-Diamonds}

. Farnood led out, Ivey raised, Lisandro folded and Farnood called. The turn brought the {J-Hearts}

, eliciting a check from Farnood and a bet from Ivey. Farnood gave up his hand and Ivey won the pot.

Sensing too little excitement from the rail for Ivey, TD Jack Effel got on the mic.

"No cheers for Phil, here?" he asked.

"I think everyone's bet against him!" joked Media Director Nolan Dalla.

"Really?" said Ivey, turning around to greet Dalla with a sly smile.
