Phil Ivey Up, then Down

Phil Ivey seems to be in his comfort zone, munching on Doritos and snatching pots away from the likes of Lee Watkinson with big raises. But he just took a hit when, while holding Q-J, the flop came Jack-high and his opponent held pocket Aces. Ivey was up as high as 101,000 but with that hit he's slipped to 80,000.
