Antonius and Ivey Controlling The Table
The hardest seats to sit in right now definitely belong to the players that have to face Patrik Antonius and Phil Ivey. The two poker superstars do not want to give in against any player and they both try to control ever single pot.
We just saw seven hands in a row, four of which were won by Antonius and two by Ivey. During one of the hands it was Antonius who three-bet Ivey and the crowd immediately leaned over the rail to take in every second of this exciting scenario. Ivey opted to lay it down, and everybody exhaled.
Only once did Antonius have to give up a hand, this was when a short stack decided to three-bet him. All the other pots that were played did not contain a lot of chips but it sent a clear signal to all the players at the table.
