Ivey Doubles on Penultimate Hand
Level 8
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Phil Ivey just scooped in a massive pot, with the dealer recapping the preflop action to PokerNews.
Ivey opened from under the gun and picked up called from Joao Vieira and Martin Stausholm. The big blind then jammed for over 215,000 and Ivey snap-called off his stack of 178,000 before the remaining players folded.
Phil Ivey: J?J?
Big Blind: 10x10x
Ivey's superior pair remained best and he banked a late Day 1 double up after the 8?4?6?8?3? runout.
