Ivey Gets Max Value With Pretty Bad Hand
Level 2
: 0/0, 1,000 ante
Chan Wai Leong raised under the gun and only Phil Ivey called from the button. Chan continued for 15,000 on the 
flop and Ivey called.
Chan slowed down on the 
turn and checked. Ivey threw in a 40,000-bet and Chan paused before calling.
The river came 
and Chan checked again. Ivey took all of his chips and pushed them across the betting line. Chan fell into a tank-mode and eventually called.
Ivey smiled and showed 
, perhaps thinking that he was caught. But Chan mucked his to the surprise of the table. "Really?" Elton Tsang asked.
Just like that, Ivey managed to cross 400,000 in chips while Chan had to reload.
