Out of all of the cashes Phil Ivey has racked up over his career, he's never once cashed in the Aussie Millions Main Event prior to this year.
Yesterday Phil Ivey and Jason Koon sat next to each other basically all day. Table 27 just got broken and guess who moved to Phil Ivey's table? Yes, it was Jason Koon.

It's time for Day 3 of the Aussie Millions Main Event and we are ready to go! Play will start with just 75 players and 72 will get paid. Bubble play will start right away and we expect to see some big clashes as play goes on.
We came to Phil Ivey's table with a flop showing and Ivey in the hand against Jason Koon. Ivey was first to act and at this point there was around 20,000 in the pot. Ivey opted to lead for 15,000 and Koon made the call.
Phil Ivey has added some chips to his stack and busted a player (made a swift exit before we could ask his name). He raised to 10,000 from under the gun and called with when a player shoved from mid position.
Even though Jason Koon is crushing with just under 800,000 chips Phil Ivey seems to be the man in charge. We just witnessed him winning four hands in a row of which three went uncontested.

In middle position, Phil Ivey opened to 7,500, and the gentleman on the button three-bet shoved for his last 70,500. The quietly appeared face-up in front of Ivey's stack, and Mr. Opponent said, "I think you got it.
We rolled up on a hand on a flop with about 40,000 in the pot. The player in the big blind position was first to act and moved all in for 53,400. Phil Ivey, who was under the gun, asked for a count before nonchalantly tossing in a call.
James Dempsey has joined Phil Ivey and Jason Koon's table and all three of them have way above average chips. I wish all their table mates luck as they're going to need it.
Just a little notice for anyone that's planning on stealing Phil Ivey's blinds: Make new plans.
Jason Koon was sat to the left of Phil Ivey, which makes for an interesting dynamic moving forward. Koon just used that position to maneuver Ivey off a hand.
