My man Phil Ivey is an absolute genius and a risky man daring to bluff at this pot. He’s putting $12,000 into a $27,500 pot which is an excellent bet that would probably fool me into thinking Phil had the straight…
If he knew these guys had KK and AK – he wouldn’t even have tried…
Phil Ivey playing super strong from the button, playing aggressively and getting top pro Erick Lindgren to throw away his top pair with eight high.
A lot of aggressive play from Phil in the Pro/Am Equalizer, by the way. Love how he played there. Cheryl Hines was happy not to be a part of this pot.
