Big Double for Ivey
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
After some back-and-forth, Phil Ivey and big stack Vitalijs Zavorotnijs got it all in preflop, with the poker HoFer at risk of elimination.
Phil Ivey: A?7?
Vitalijs Zavorotnijs: A?Q?
Ivey would need some help to stay alive, but the board ran out 6?9?7?8?3? to give Ivey the win with his pair of sevens. He is now sitting with over 3,500,000 and is one of the largest stacks in the field.
