Carlos Mortensen raised from the small blind and Phil Ivey called in the big blind.

The flop was {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{A-Diamonds}

and Mortensen led out with a bet which Ivey called. The turn was the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

and again Mortensen fired. Ivey made the quick call and the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

fell on the river. Mortensen fired a third shell and Ivey looked him up.

Mortensen tabled {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{2-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

for a rivered set of deuces without a low, as Ivey revealed {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

for a bigger set. Ivey takes it down to extend his chip lead, to 1.58 million with Mortensen back to 860,000.
