It's been extremely slow as of late. In fact, the most exciting action happened when Daniel Negreanu raised to 100,000 from the button and Tom "durrrr" Dwan moved all in from the small blind. Fabian Quoss folded from the big blind and then Negreanu did the same.
Isaac Haxton opened for 115,000 and received a call from Phil Ivey. The latter player then checked the flop, Haxton bet 150,000, and Ivey spring to life with a check-raise to 450,000. It did the trick as Haxton folded.
