Michael Addamo Knocks Out One of the Best

Michael Addamo opened from the cutoff and Phil Ivey pushed his 250,000 stack into the middle. Addamo called, putting Ivey at risk.
Phil Ivey: [adtd]
Michael Addamo: [9d9c]
The flop came down [qd8c7s] and Addamo was still in the lead. A [kh] turn card brought some straight outs for Ivey but the [6s] failed to improve his hand and he was eliminated by the nines of Addamo.
