Phil and Lance... and Tom
A player under the gun raise, and Lance Funston made the call from middle position. Phil Ivey called from the big blind as well, and it was three ways to the flop.
The dealer put out , and the action checked to Funston. He bet, Ivey raised, and the original raiser folded out of the way. Funston came back with a third bet, though, and Ivey called.
The hit fourth street, and one leading bet from Ivey was enough to earn him the pot without contest. He's up to 51,500 after that hand, and the last-longer negotiations between he and Tom Dwan have been sparked once again. Dwan currently has about 58,000 chips.
