Level 31: 100,000-200,000, 20,000 ante

Phil Ivey limps from the button for 200,000, and Moritz Kranich checks his option in the big blind. The flop comes AclubJclub4heart, Kranich checks, Ivey min-bets 200,000, and Kranich calls. The turn card pairs the board with the Adiamond, Ivey bets 500,000, and Kranich calls.

Moritz Kranich now has a huge chip lead, while Phil Ivey is crippled to just a handful of big blinds.
