Phil Ivey isn't online but he is multi tabling today, not uncommon for him. Right now he is over playing in Event #8: $2,500 Eight-Game Mix while his stack in this event blinds off.
Lucky for Ivey the blinds are still low and he got a good start in the early levels.

We caught up with 13-time bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth as he faced a pre-flop raise to 400. He quickly called, as did the big blind. The flop fell 
. The blind checked, and the original raiser continued for 650. A frustrated looking Hellmuth shook his head and verbally announced "fold," though he kept his cards under a small stack of chips. The last remaining player in the hand folded as well, and as the pot was being pushed to the winner, Hellmuth opened his hand to show 
. After the hand, the poker brat is back down to a starting stack of 9,000.
