Blinding Performance

As I scoured the tables, I was temporarily blinded by Phil Ivey's dazzling jacket, but with my hand blocking its beams, I was able to note down the following encounter:

Three-handed to an {8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop, the action checked around to Ivey on the button who led out. Just the small blind called. Both players checked the {K-Spades} turn, only for Ivey to bet 300 on the {8-Clubs} river.

His opponent fingered his chips, paused, and eventually made the call. Ivey took the pot with {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}.

As a result, Ivey is now up to 7,700.
