Playing With Fire

Paul Kristoffersson must not recognize the guy sitting to his left.

We watched him and Phil Ivey take a heads-up flop in a battle of the blinds. It came {9-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {7-Hearts}, and Kristoffersson check-called a bet of 4,300. On the turn, the {6-Diamonds} drew checks from both players, and the {K-Diamonds} landed on the river. Kristoffersson led out with a big bet of 14,300 into a pot of about that much, and Ivey shot him a dark stare. He'd make Kristoffersson squirm for a couple minutes before finally shaking his head and releasing his cards.

On the next hand, Kristoffersson opened with a big raise to 8,000 from the button, and Ivey went right ahead and three-bet to 23,000 straight. Kristoffersson counted down his remaining stack before waving the white flag, and Ivey gets slightly the better of that two-hand exchange.
