I read souls

Phil Ivey opened for 135,000 from late position and Christopher Bach called from the big blind. Both players checked the {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{3-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

flop. The turn came the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and Bach bet 150,000. Ivey made the call. The river was the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

and Bach fired a second barrel for 360,000. Ivey looked him up.

Bach had nothing more than {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

. Ivey's

{A-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

was good and he raked in the pot. He's now up to 7.1 million while Bach fell to 2.2 million.
