Ivey Can't Buy This One

An under-the-gun player limped, the cutoff seat limped, the button limped and then action moved to Phil Ivey in the big blind. He squeezed in a raise to 1,800. The player under the gun called and the cutoff called. The button folded.

The flop came down {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Ivey checked. The next player bet 2,500 and the cutoff folded. Ivey made the call.

The turn brought the {4-Clubs} and both players checked before the {J-Clubs} fell on the river to put four clubs on board. Ivey fired 6,000.

"How many clubs are out there?" said Ivey's opponent. "6,000? I call."

Ivey nodded his head and his opponent tabled the {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Ivey mucked and dropped to 24,000 in chips.
