Phil Ivey opened for 8,000 from under the gun and Anton Smirnov called from the small blind. The flop was 
and Smirnov checked. Ivey bet 8,000 and Smirnov made the call. The turn was the 
and again Smirnov checked. Ivey fired 20,000 and Smirnov called.
The river was the 
and Smirnov checked to Ivey for a thrid time. Ivey stacked his last 46,000 and pushed it toward the pot. Smirnov called and Ivey turned over
