Phil Ivey (€100,000 Super High Roller)
Phil Ivey (€100,000 Super High Roller)

On the {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} board, Phil Ivey bet 32,000 and Team PokerStars Pro Liv Boeree raised to 75,000. After a little bit of thought, Ivey reraised all in. Boeree called and put all of her 225,000 or so chips on the line.

Ivey tabled the nuts with the {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. Boeree was behind with the {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} for a set of eights, but did have outs to a full house.

The river completed the board with the {J-Spades} and Ivey's straight held up. He eliminated Boeree en route to 700,000 in chips.
