Ivey is in a Jovial Mood

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Phil Ivey is not usually known for his playful demeanour while he is playing poker, but he seems to be in great spirits today and looks to be thoroughly enjoying himself. We've seen him laughing and joking with his table mates and just now he even showed the winning hand to an opponent when he didn't need to.

The button raised to 1,400 and Ivey defended his big blind with a call. The {4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop was checked by both players, but Ivey led for 2,000 when the {4-Hearts} appeared on the turn. The button folded and asked Ivey to show and to everyone's surprise Ivey flipped over the {4-Clubs} to show he had trip fours, doing so with a cheeky grin on his face.
