After a player raised to 4,000 Phil Ivey called on the button. The flop came {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

{7-Hearts}

and when the original raiser bet 7,000, Ivey raised to 31,000. His opponent moved all in, and with that raise only an additional 7,000, Ivey made the call. He found that his {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

badly trailed his opponent' s {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

, and when the board ran out {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

, Ivey found his stack reduced to 16,000.
