Ivey Takes From Schindler

Level 9 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Steffen Sontheimer raised it up to 135,000 and Phil Ivey three-bet to 500,000 from one seat over. Sontheimer released his cards into the muck and Ivey dragged in the pot.

One hand later, Ivey raised to 130,000 and Jake Schindler came along from the button, as did Bryn Kenney in the big blind. The flop came {9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and Kenney checked, Ivey continued for 150,000, and just Schindler called.

Ivey checked the {4-Hearts} on the turn and called a bet of 450,000 by Schindler. Both then ended up checking through the {8-Spades} river. Ivey announced a pair, turned over his {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for a pair of deuces, and that won the pot.
