Ivey Dusted by a Big Blind Special
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Phil Ivey raised it up from the hijack and was called by Valeriano Toledano in the big blind. The flop fell 9♣3♠2♣ and Ivey continued with a bet. Toledano check-raised and Ivey shipped all in for around 500,000 which Toledano quickly called.
Phil Ivey: JxJx
Valeriano Toledano: 9♠2♠
Toledano outflopped Ivey with two pair and the Q♠ on the turn also gave him a flush draw. The 2♦ hit the river and Toledano improved to a full house to eliminate Ivey late on Day 2.
