Ivey, Ahead on Every Street, Collects Value

[user75032]

At times it seems like Phil Ivey remains in this tournament simply because he wants to be here. If for some reason that attitude changed -- for example, if Tiger Woods fails to make the cut tomorrow -- it almost seems like Ivey would find something else to do.

For the moment, Ivey remains a fixture in the tournament, his attention divided between his table and the giant screen showing the Masters. He's become a bit more active recently, opening more pots. He opened to 6,000 and was called only by the big blind. Ivey continued for 9,000 on a flop of {9-Spades}
