Folding to Ivey

Phil Ivey has managed to slowly accumulate a nice stack toward the end of Day 1a action and it is because of hands like this that he now sits behind an almost six-figure stack.

The action started when a player opened to 2,200 from middle position. Ivey made the call from the button and the flop fell {9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Ivey's opponent again led, this time for 3,100. When Ivey made the call, the {7-Clubs} landed on the turn and both players opted to check.

The {5-Clubs} on the river prompted Ivey's opponent to bet, throwing out 7,300 and leaving himself with around 20,000 behind.

At this point Ivey studied his opponent before tumbling a stack of 5,000 denomination chips onto the felt. It was more than enough to cover his opponent, who went into the tank before sending his cards into the muck.
