Disgruntled Ivey

[user76079]

There is no doubt the marquee match of round four is the Phil Ivey versus Gus Hansen match. These players know each others game very well and will play very hard against each other. And if you needed more proof the first hand is testament to that.

Hansen limped from the button and called Ivey's 6,000 raise to see a {a-Diamonds} {q-Clubs} {5-Clubs} flop. Ivey led for 8,000 and was called to go to the {j-Hearts} turn. This time he bet 22,000 and once again Hansen called. The river came a dangerous looking {6-Clubs} and Ivey checked to face a 63,000 bet from Hansen. He didn't like it as you could see from his face and after a few minutes thought he angrily slid his cards into the muck.
