Ivey Moves Over Twenty Million
Level 21
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Jesse Lonis raised to 1,100,000 from the cutoff and only Phil Ivey wanted to see a flop out of the small blind.
After Ivey saw the A♦K♦K♥ flop, he checked, and Lonis bet 525,000. Ivey continued with a check-raise to 1,500,000, which Lonis called.
Two checks came after the 8♣ turn and the 6♥ fell on the river. After a further two checks, Ivey turned over K♣10♠ for trip kings. It won him the pot as Lonis mucked A♠3♠ for a pair of aces.
