It’s 12:25 PM. We’re about to get the cards in the air. Everyone is milling around so it’s hard to figure out all the specifics but this is what I know or am pretty sure of:

It’s 10:35 PM. We have wrapped up for today and the producer said we should be here at 11 AM. I have no idea what time that means we start. But toward the end, Phil Ivey made a comeback, taking about $70,000 off Chris Ferguson on the second to last hand of the day.

At 9:48 PM, Allen raised Brian Townsend all-in after the turn on a board of 2s-Jd-5h-Js, and Brian folded. Phil brought up something about raising the blinds and antes and Tony G quickly championed the cause. Tony emphasized that it would just be for the last hour, though by the time everyone said they’d go along, he asked (I’m sure, rhetorically), “So, does this mean we’re going to play lower tomorrow?”

It’s 9 PM and the players are on a short break as they change the tape. Uncle Tilty leaned into me at the break and whispered, “Ivey told me in that hand against Patrik, he flopped a set of nines.”

That’s what Uncle Tilty told me after a big pot between Phil Ivey and Patrik Antonius at about 8:30 PM.

I’ve always had a sneaking suspicion there’s something foul in the London food, and now I’m nearly sure. Everybody came back from dinner a little edgy, a little out of sorts. Erik Seidel came back simply to announce he was done. Because he was being interviewed by a commentator who clearly had no idea of this, I think Erik decided this while he was talking to the guy.

I’m taking the dinner break at a burger place that advertises itself as “burgers and more.” I may consider hiring a solicitor to bring an action for false advertising. At 5:55 PM, the players broke for dinner. Between the Tony G-Phil Ivey confrontation and the break, there were just two substantial – for these guys – pots, both of which ended before the showdown.

At about 4:40 PM, Tony G and Phil Ivey got into it.
5h-3c-7h-Jc
On this board, Phil bet and Tony G went all-in. Ivey asked for a count. The dealer counted the chips. $94,400 more. Then Ivey asked three more times, I assume hoping that Tony G would say something or do something. But he had his elbows planted on the table, the lower half of his face obscured by his hands, and his eyes were fixed downward.
