Phil Ivey Can Not Be Stopped

[user162117]

We came to Phil Ivey's table with a flop showing {k-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} 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. The {j-Spades} on the turn saw Ivey lead again, this time for 30,000. Another call from Koon and the {a-Hearts} would complete the board. This time Ivey flicked out 75,000 and Koon quickly made the call.

Ivey turned over his {k-Spades} {5-Spades} , a flopped full house just about enough to send Koon's cards flying into the muck. We don't want to jinx Ivey by speaking too soon, but at this rate he will definitely be finishing in the top couple of chip counts.
