"That's Why You're Phil Ivey"
Level 5
Phil Ivey: 
/
David Lieberman: 
/
With action picked up on fifth street, David Lieberman check-raised Phil Ivey, who responded by putting out a third bet. Lieberman called and wished Ivey good luck.
Spoiler alert: Be careful what you wish for.
Lieberman then checked sixth street and called another bet from the Poker Hall of Famer.
On seventh street Lieberman checked once more and then deliberated after Ivey put out another bet.
Ultimately Lieberman made the call to hear Ivey say "I have a very good hand" as he rolled over three fives in the hole for quads.
"That's why you're Phil Ivey" said Lieberman with a smile.
Lieberman still has plenty of reason to smile despite losing this pot as he still has almost triple his opponent in this hand.
