Ashton Stays Alive

Level 7

Limit Hold'em

Phil Ivey raised and Matthew Ashton, who was down to very few chips, tanked for quite a while before three-betting from the small blind. Ivey called and the flop brought {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}.

Ashton bet, Ivey called and on the turn, the {10-Spades} hit. The river brought out the {J-Clubs} and Ashton checked, after which Ivey checked behind.

Ashton showed {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} - enough to rake in this pot - but the defending champ is far from being out of trouble.
