Level 11 : 1,500/3,000, 700 ante

Phil Ivey moved all in for 9,800. It folded to James Alexander on the button who three-bet to isolate, getting the other players to fold.

Ivey drew two and Alexander stood pat.

James Alexander: {9-}{9-}{j-}{4-}{2-}
Phil Ivey: {8-}{5-}{2-}

"Oh no! I misread my hand!" said Alexander who obviously didn't realize he had a pair.

Ivey turned over a {2-} to pair and suddenly, the sweat was on. His last card was a {k-} and he doubled.
