On one of the final hands of the level we found Bernard Lee check-calling 6,200 on a {3-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {Q-Spades} board to see the {Q-Clubs} land on the river. Lee was then faced with a 7,500-chip bet which - after deliberating for some time - he called only to muck at the sight of his opponent's {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} . Although Lee slipped to 16,000 after the hand, he happily took a few moments of his time to take part in the next Poker Vox Pop instalment.

Will Phil Ivey play an event at this World Series?
No.

Smith Soars, Binger Crippled

[user80015]

With an all in of 6,400, Jordan Smith three-bet before Nick Binger moved all in. Smith made the call for his 33,100 as all three players cards were tabled.

Binger: {9-Spades} {9-Clubs}
Smith: {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Spades} {8-Spades}

The board was spread {5-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} to see the short-stacked player triple as Smith took the side pot to move to 66,000 while Binger was left with only 15,000.
