Ivey Meets Nashar
Level 10
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Phil Ivey didn't last too long after entering at the last second as he encountered Hassan Nashar.
The action was recalled to PokerNews by the table that Nashar limped in from middle position, the small blind called, and Ivey checked from the big blind.
It checked to Nashar on the 9♦6♥2♣ flop, and he bet 34,000. The small blind folded, Ivey made it 90,000, Nashar shoved, and Ivey called off his stack of around 210,000.
Phil Ivey: 9♠2♦
Hassan Nashar: 9♥4♦
Ivey was in great shape with two pair, but the A♣4♠ runout improved Nashar to a bigger two pair on the river, which was enough to send Ivey to the rail.
