Phil Ivey got knocked out after going up and down.

My hopes lay with Humberto Brenes now in this event as my other draft picks have been eliminated as well.

Phil Laak continues to do well.

Some other big names got knocked out just before Phil Ivey too...

Phil Ivey is Out
Phil Ivey was put all in by his opponent on a flop of 10-10-6 after he led out with a bet. Ivey made the call, showing K-Q. He was behind his opponent's A-J. Ivey failed to improve after the turn was a deuce and the river another blank. Ivey has been eliminated and will have to wait until another event to capture his next bracelet.

John Juanda is Eliminated
John Juanda moved in the last of his chips with pocket nines and found himself racing against A K His slight lead evaporated when the flop came A-J-4, and when Juanda couldn't find a nine on the turn or river his night came to a premature end.
