Much Ado

Shamus

Marc McLaughlin raised to 150,000 from middle position, Phil Ivey reraised to 500,000 from the button, the blinds folded, then McLaughlin reraised to 1.25 million. Ivey paused a beat, then pushed all in. McLaughlin made the call.

McLaughlin turned over {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

and Ivey

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

. The flop came {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

, making the {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

turn and

{4-Spades}

a little added trivia.

After that big chop, McLaughlin has 3.6 million and Ivey 7.9 million.
