Phil-ling Lucky?

Phil Ivey

The hijack opened to 725 preflop and Phil Ivey made the call from the small blind before checking the {J-Spades} {7-Clubs} {3-Clubs}. His opponent responded by firing out a bet of 950 to which Ivey put in a check-raise to 3,000, a quick think and...call.

The {2-Clubs}, so usually a blank in poker, came on the turn completing the flush and both players checked before the {Q-Spades} appeared on the river and Ivey fired out a bet of 5,000. The hijack let out a loud sigh rechecking his cards before folding.

The Ivey bandwagon marches on.
