As you all have probably heard, Phil Ivey didn’t exactly want to do a bustout interview after his AK lost to Darvin Moon’s AQ. But as he tried to sneak out the back hallway — to the back lot at the Rio where his RV and Hummer were parked — a few people were able [...]

This time short-stacked Phil Ivey got it all-in with AK vs. Darvin Moon’s AQ. The crowd has erupted to chants of “I-VEY, I-VEY, I-VEY!” Ivey tries to hold back a smile … biting into an apple to hide his smirk. UPDATE: And ooooh, Pokerati’s fave final table dealer Linda Tran delivers a Queen in the door. [...]

Well, if you told me going into the day that I'd end with 760k, I'd have taken it. But I actually went on a rush very early and got up to 860k by the first break, winning a QQ/AK race, then flopping a set against aces. My peak was 1.3 million or so when I played a big pot against Soheil, but then doubled him up when he flopped trips (with 82o in a raised flop, heh) and now he is the chip leader again....

So, while the US passed health care reform tonight, I'm celebrating with a SnG on Full Tilt. I wanted to play one of my favorites... the 90 player turbo deep stack knock-out SnG, but that's a little too much commitment for this sleepyhead.
