Daniel Negreanu opened to 60,000 from early position before Seth Davies three-bet to 180,000 in the cutoff. Action folded back around to Negreanu who went deep into the tank as he considered a decision that would very likely be for his tournament life. After burning through one time extension, he folded to leave himself grinding a short stack near the money bubble.
Brian Green raised from under the fun to 75,000 and Jonathan Jaffe called from the big blind.
On the 9♦6♣4♥ flop, Jaffe checked, Green bet 50,000, and Jaffe called.
The turn brought an 8♦ which Jaffe checked, and Green fired 100,000. Jaffe then announced a raise to 270,000, which sent Green into the tank. After using several time extensions, Green elected to fold.
Joey Weissman had already raised from the cutoff and Shannon Shorr shoved for his last 470,000 on the button. Action folded back to Weissman, who called to put Shorr at risk.
Shannon Shorr: A♣A♦
Joey Weissman: A♥10♣
Shorr had Weissman crushed, and the 4♣J♦8♣Q♣4♥ runout kept Shorr best with his aces for the double up.
Michael Jordan. Tom Brady. Tiger Woods. Serena Williams. Phil Ivey. What do these five superstars have in common? They're all widely considered the best to have ever done it in their respective sports.
On Thursday, Ivey captured his 11th World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet when he took down Event #29: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw Championship (6-Handed). That puts him alone in second place behind the 17 bracelets Phil Hellmuth holds.
PokerNews asked some players at the WSOP why they think Ivey is the G.O.A.T., and we received some interesting answers from some of the best in the game.
Aleksejs Ponakovs raised on the button and was called by Mikita Badziakouski in the big blind.
Badziakouski check-called a 40,000 bet from Ponakovs on the J♦2♦9♦ flop and then both players checked on the 4♦ turn.
Badziakouski announced a bet of 150,000 after the 5♥ landed on the river and Ponakovs quickly folded.
Chance Kornuth raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Leon Sturm flatted in the cutoff.
The flop came J♥K♦2♣, and Kornuth check-called a bet of 60,000.
On the 3♠ turn, Kornuth checked again. Sturm bet 245,000 and Kornuth thought for a moment, before tossing his cards into the muck.
Stephen Song opened the cutoff to 60,000 and Yulian Bogdanov three-bet to 210,000 out of the small blind. Song called.
They saw a flop of 6♣8♦5♥ which Bogdanov checked, Song bet 100,000, and Bogdanov called.
A 7♦ fell on the turn and again Bogdanov went into check-call mode once Song bet 140,000.
When the 3♠ completed the board, Bogdanov checked for a third time and Song shoved. Bogdanov had 385,000 chips behind and snap-called.
Song tabled K♣Q♣ but Bogdanov had turned a straight holding K♥9♥.

Blinds: 15,000/30,000
Ante: 30,000
