Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Picking up the action on the river with the board reading {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, Phil Ivey was facing a bet of 30,000 from his opponent. The pot had over 85,000 in the middle and Ivey found it in him to make the call after thinking for a couple of minutes.

His opponent turned over {k-Hearts}{10-Spades} and hinted that Ivey was probably made a good call. Ivey indeed held the best hand with {a-}{q-} and has vaulted his stack over 600,000 now.
