Back-to-Back Pots Boost Ivey
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Johannes Becker raised and called a three-bet by Phil Ivey to then discard two versus one and check-call a bet. On the second draw, Becker discarded one while Ivey patted and Becker check-called another bet.
The final draw saw Becker take one again with Ivey patting behind. They checked and Ivey won the pot with the 9x8x6x3x2x.
Marco Johnson then raised from under the gun and he was called by Ivey in the small blind and Ray Dehkharghani came along from the big blind. Each of them discarded two, which Ivey made sure of before he bet. Dehkharghani raised and Johnson tank-folded before Ivey made it three bets and earned a call from Dehkharghani.
Both then patted the final two draws with Ivey betting and Dehkharghani calling. Ivey showed his 7x6x4x3x2x for a number two and raked in another pot.
