Ivey's Catching Cards

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

We came to the table with Phil Ivey and his {j-Clubs}{8-Spades} calling the all in of another player holding {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} preflop. There was no hope for Ivey on the {2-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} board but the {8-Clubs} gave him a glimmer. As if on cue, the river {8-Hearts} came and Ivey eliminated his opponent while stacking some chips much to the dismay of his table mates.
