Ivey, Ivey, Ivey!

Six players committed 300 preflop - including Phil Ivey from the cutoff - to see a {4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} flop fall.

The preflop raiser fired out 700 and was called in one spot before Ivey made it 2,800 to go. The button and blinds passed, as did the original raiser, before the player caught in the middle made the call for the additional 2,100.

The turn of the {9-Hearts} was checked through to see the {2-Spades} land on the river and Ivey faced with a bet of 3,600 in which he quickly called.

Shown his opponent's {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, Ivey tabled his {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} to collect the pot and move to 45,700 in chips.

"Nice hand Phil!" stated Mel Humphries from the rail before his wife - and fellow avid Ivey supporter - Pat began her famous, "Ivey, Ivey, Ivey!" chant.
