Ivey Wakes Up With Aces
Level 14
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Armin Ghojehvand made it 325,000 from middle position and Martin Dam three-bet from the hijack to pot. Phil Ivey shoved 1,895,000 in the big blind, Ghojehvand folded, and Dam called.
Phil Ivey: A♣A♦9♠5♦ 
Martin Dam: A♥J♣7♣5♥
Ivey was in the driving seat, but did have to dodge some outs on the 9♦2♠10♥ flop. He did manage to do so, though, as the 5♣K♣ runout wasn't enough to help Dam.
