Lyubovetskiy Takes Himself to Value Town Against Ivey
Level 9
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Phil Ivey opened the button to 105,000 and Andriy Lyubovetskiy called out of the big blind.
The flop came 6♥5♦7♣, where both checked to the J♠ turn. Lyubovetskiy led out for 90,000, which Ivey called to see the Q♥ fall on the river. Lyubovetskiy didn't slow down, as he fired 250,000, and Ivey called without much hesitation.
Lyubovetskiy flashed 6♠6♦ for a set, but Ivey held A♥8♥5♣4♥ for a flopped straight to scoop the pot.
