Ouch.

We'll Have a New Champion; Eastgate Out

Billy Kopp came in with a raise to 105,000 from early position, and Dennis Phillips made the call in the next seat over. Action came around to Peter Eastgate in the small blind, and he moved all in for 445,000 total. Both Kopp and Phillips eventually called to put Eastgate at risk.

The board ran out {6-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {3-Hearts} with the two live players check-checking it all the way down. Phillips missed everything, and Eastgate tabled {A-Diamonds} {J-Spades} for top two. It was no good though; Kopp showed up {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}, having rivered the winning four-flush.

That's the end of the road for defending champion Peter Eastgate. He put on a great show, and he seemed to have the support of the masses as he made his second consecutive deep run, but he just couldn't get anything going today. His quest for a legendary back-to-back championship will come up about 75 places short.

Ivey KO's Goulding

Phil Ivey was first in from the button, and he made it 110,000 to skate. In the big blind, Kent Goulding put in a re-raise to 325,000, and Ivey called.

Heads up, the flop came {Q-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Hearts}. Goulding checked, and Ivey fired a big tower of chips at the pot, enough to cover his opponent. Goulding called all in for his last 910,000, at risk for his tournament life.

Showdown
Ivey: {J-Hearts} {5-Hearts}
Goulding: {Q-Clubs} {7-Hearts}

Goulding was in the lead with top pair, but Ivey's flush draw was live. The turn was a blank though, as the {9-Spades} was the wrong color. The river was the right color though, and indeed the right suit. The {K-Hearts} spiked the board, improving Ivey to the winning flush and sending Goulding out the door.

With that win, Ivey is sitting pretty right at the 5,000,000-chip mark. Uh oh.

Oh my.

Call 3bet in pos with J5hh when the guy 3bet 1/4th of his stack in pre? If you're Phil Ivey you can.

OOP vs Phil Ivey seems like an ideal steal spot.

I'm glad Hac Dang is gone. He's an unknown to people who don't follow high stakes online games, as a strong player he would slightly reduce Ivey's chance of winning and he wouldn't at least donk off his winnings into the poker economy.

Crowe Eliminated

Scott Bohlman opened the pot with a raise to 95,000 from under the gun. Owen Crowe was in middle position and reraised to 295,000. Action folded all the way around to Fernando Gordo in the big blind and he moved all in for 1.8 million chips total. Bohlman released his hand and then Crowe had a decision to make for all of his chips.

Crowe stood from his chair and removed his sunglasses. He tanked for a while. He even tried to talk to Gordo by saying, "I wish you spoke English."

All Gordo did was hold up his hand with his index finger and thumb spread about an inch to signify that he spoke a little bit. Crowe smiled, but still tanked.

Eventually, he made the call with {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs}. Gordo held {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}. "Gotta win a race." announced Crowe.

The flop wasn't a good one for Crowe, when it came down {K-Clubs} {9-Spades} {5-Spades}. Crowe was now looking for just a queen or running straight cards as his backdoor spades were blocked by Gordo's {K-Spades}.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and then the river the {A-Clubs}. Gordo stood and raised his hands above his head in triumph as Crowe was sent to the rail.

Crowe final tabled an event earlier this year for nearly $150,000 in prize money. He also made an even deeper run in last year's Main Event. There, Crowe finished in 15th place for over $435,000. Not a bad two years at the WSOP.

you know the dealers are rooting for ivey... imagine the tip he will leave...

you think that has any bearing on the cards? when the dealer has it in their mind that they want someone to win... i wonder...
