Brandon Steven Eliminated in 7th Place ($99,817)

Kirk.brown

Niveau 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Short-stacked Brandon Steven moved all in preflop for his last 900,000 but then Phil Ivey shoved over the top to isolate.

Brandon Steven: A♥5♥
Phil Ivey: K♥9♦

The flop came out 8♣A♠10♠ to push Ivey further into the lead with top pair but the turn J♥ gave Steven some hope with some queen outs. Unfortunately, the 10♥ on the river did not do it and he was eliminated in seventh place.

Phil Ivey Eliminated in 6th Place ($133,461)

Niveau 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Phil Ivey moved all in from under the gun only to see Phil Hellmuth re-jam from middle position. The remaining players got out of the way to put Ivey officially at risk.

Phil Ivey: K♦10♦
Phil Hellmuth: A♦A♥

Hellmuth had picked up rockets at an opportune moment to leave Ivey on the ropes. The 4♠Q♥4♥ flop brought no immediate help to the at risk player though the J♥ turn did give Ivey a straight draw. It did not come in on the 3♣ river, sending Ivey to the payout desk in 6th place and ensuring that his hunt for an elusive eleventh bracelet will continue.

Kelvin Kerber Eliminated in 4th Place ($249,876)

Niveau 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Tom Kunze moved all in from the small blind and Kelvin Kerber called off for his tournament life out of the big blind.

Kelvin Kerber: Q♠10♠
Tom Kunze: K♦3♠

Kunze was marginally ahead but was able to cement his lead on the K♥10♦8♠ flop. Nothing changed on the 2♦ turn or 8♣ river to deny Kerber his first bracelet, instead condemning him to a fourth place finish.
