Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

As we arrived the turn was already out in a heads up pot between Phil Ivey and Samir Bouchakour from France.

With the board reading , Bouchakour checked to Ivey. The poker super star grabbed 13,000 from his stack and nonchalantly threw it in the middle. Bouchakour thought about it for a little bit and then raised it up to 27,000. Ivey made the call.

The river came the and Bouchakour checked. Ivey couldn't exactly tell how much his French opponent had behind and asked if Bouchakour could lift his arms so he could see. Bouchakour did just that and Ivey saw there was about 60,000 behind.

"Allin" he then said as he moved two towers forward. The black and red allin-triangle was tossed in front of him and Bouchakour thought about it for a little bit. "Call" he said all of the sudden. "He said call right?" asked Ivey the dealer for clarification.

Ivey showed his and Bouchakour's face changed from excited to deeply devastated. He didn't open his cards so the dealer wasn't shoving the pot to Ivey just yet. Bouchakour eventually tapped the table, and open mucked his .
