Ivey on the Move!

Before the flop, Hac Dang opened with a raise to 80,000. Halfway around the table, Phil Ivey three-bet it up to 260,000 with postition. Dang then moved all in for about 620,000, and Ivey quietly made the call to put him at risk of elimination.

Showdown
Dang: {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs}
Ivey: {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts}

You know the rest of the story. The flop rolled out {J-Spades} {9-Spades} {4-Clubs}, drawing a huge reaction from the cheering squad assembled on the ledge. The {5-Clubs} and {7-Clubs} that filled out the board did nothing to save Dang, and he's been sent to the rail courtesy of Ivey's two-out jack. With that knockout, Phil is all the way up to 3,260,000.
