Ivey Aggressive Early

Level 2

No-Limit Hold'em

Action folded to Talal Shakerchi in late position who opened to 4,000. Phil Ivey was next to act and three-bet to 14,000. Shakerchi opted to peel three and made the call.

The 6103 flop landed and action checked to Ivey. He didn't waste much time before putting out a continuation bet of 15,000.

Many have tried and failed at playing Ivey out of position in a three-bet pot and although he went into the tank for a moment, Shakerchi thought better of it and mucked his hand. Ivey wins a nice pot early with little resistance.
