Ivey Doesn't Find Soft Metaal
![[user76079]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Phil Ivey's stack is in the red for the first time today after he called a river bet from Govert Metaal which was bad.
Ivey opened from mid position and Metaal peeled from the big blind to see a 
flop where he check-called a 1,000 c-bet. Both players checked the 
turn before the Dutchman led for 2,500 on the 
river.
Ivey took his time and threw in the calling chips. Metaal opened 
for a flush and Ivet mucked.
