vnh.

I don't really know anything about the other guy in this hand or whether he and Ivy play together much, but this happens between me and a couple of friends sometimes. Actually, something similar happened the other day in a 2/5 casino game. I was betting the whole way on a draw, the guy calls a $150 bluff on the river (pot ~260) with another busted draw. He had a king high and took it down. I got PWND.

I think Ivey got his answer on his second reraise. When his opp. reraised him after Ivey's second reraise, Ivey knew that if his opp. had a big hand he would've gone all in. Ivey picked up on that and I think thats why he decided to push on the very next play.

How many chips did Jackson have? Like half a million when it started? So he lost like his whole stack?

They said he got up to about a million, and when Phil asks how much he has left he said 380k. So he lost about 600k on the hand.

It is a nh.... but look at the chip stacks peoples.

It looks to me like they just started heads up. Phil knows that he has a commanding chip stack, and he knows that his opp is so shortstacked that he is going to have to make a move.

By the time Phil went all-in I would think he was thinking "well my opp either has a huge hand or he has air." If he has a huge hand, I will pay him off and still be a huge chip leader. If he has air, haha I win.

It was very fun to watch tho.

Read the end of this article, it offers both players thought processes. Chard pretty much nailed it.

Char - if you missed this thing on FSN, you should really look out for it. Very deep stacked tourney (50k stacks, opened at 25/25 blinds IIRC), they showed a lot of play from all rounds.

This hand was flat amazing. Phil was mega CL with three left, but opp had closed the gap, it would have been a horse race if Phil doubled him here. This was great play by both, except that Jack should have pushed the last time.
RIP 15

haha - Phil Ivey is such a liar!!

It was 8Q sooooted, not offsuit.

The crappy part of poker on tv is they rarely tell you the chip stacks of the players.

Char thats my main issue with Poker on TV too.


I thought about this hand. Is Jackson calling Iveys all-in if his hand was A2(I doubt it would play out the same) It seemed to me like Jackson read Iveys bluff but knew his 6high couldnt beat a bluff.

which is why as drmcboy pointed out, Jack should have either folded or pushed against Ivey's reraise rather than letting Ivey have one more crack at it.
