McNeil Lays the Iron to Ivey
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Phil Ivey raised it up from under the gun and was called by two players including Matthew McNeil in the big blind. The flop came 8♦5♠4♠ and Ivey continued with a bet of 1,400 which only McNeil called.
The turn brought the Q♠ and both players checked to the K♠ on the river. McNeil made a small bet of 1,100 and Ivey quickly called. McNeil turned over J♠8♥ for a flush and Ivey looked stunned before he dumped his cards into the muck.
