No Respect for Farnood

The man that needs no nickname.

Razz:

There's a reason people say that Phil Ivey is 'sick.' In a recent razz hand against Sherkhan Farnood, Ivey called bets from Farnood all the way down to sixth street as the hands filled out:

Ivey: {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

Farnood:

{3-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

On seventh, Farnood knuckled the table giving Ivey the last option and he bet 3,000. Farnood made the call and Ivey revealed a 10-7 low:

Ivey: [ {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{4-Clubs}

]

{7-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

[

{2-Diamonds}

]
Farnood: [ {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{5-Clubs}

]

{3-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

[

{8-Clubs}

]

Farnood could only make a 10-8 low out of the seven cards that lay spread out in front of him and the dealer pushed the pot to Ivey, kicking him back up to about ~84,000 in chips.
