Phil Ivey had only played a few hands at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) before he ran into a weird situation 10 minutes after max late registering for Event #3: $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em.
The 11-time bracelet winner entered the tournament at the start of Level 13 on Day 2 with just 12.5 big blinds. He folded his first few hands before playing a pot from the big blind that ended with the floor supervisor being called over to rule on his river bet.

When the 9♦ hit the river, Go checked it over and Lonis bet 58,000, which was snap called by Go.

On a flop of A♥9♣2♦. Joshua Remitio checked and then called Frederic Normand's bet of 7,000.
The turn brought the 10♠ and Remitio checked, then Normand cranked the bet up to 19,000, which Remitio called.
The J♥ fell on the river and again Remitio checked. This time Normand decided to apply maximum pressure by betting 40,000 to put Remitio to the test for his remaining chips.
After he tanked for a short while, Remitio made the call with 9♠6♠ and was relieved to see he has picked off Normand's bluff of 5x4x and was rewarded with a full double-up.
