Salomon Gets Value from Two Pair

Level 15 : 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante

Rick Salomon raised to 600,000 in the cutoff and Phil Ivey called from the big blind. The flop came {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Ivey checked-called a bet of 600,000 from Salomon.

The turn was the {a-Diamonds} and Ivey checked again. Salomon fired another 1,000,000 but Ivey continued to call. The river brought the {7-Hearts} and Ivey checked one more time. Salomon moved in a bet of 1,700,000 and Ivey paid him off before his time expired. Salomon flipped over {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for two pair and Ivey's cards hit the muck.
