Ivey on the Receiving End of a "Bad Beat"
Level 7
: 200/400, 50 ante
Phil Ivey's seat was empty and we checked with Bryn Kenney to see what had happened. Kenney told us that Ivey had opened to 900 and had called when his neighbor had 3-bet to 2,200. Ivey check-called a 3,000 bet on (two spades, one heart) and the fell on the turn. Ivey checked once again and shipped allin for 20,000 when his opponent fired a second bullet worth 7,200. The player in seat three made the call with for an open-ended and flushdraw. Ivey held which was the better hand. 'Was' is the correct phrasing because a hit the river which meant bad news for Ivey.
