Ivey Calls with One Pair
Level 26
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Phil Ivey opened to 440,000 from under the gun and Dennis Weiss defended from the big blind. The flop came J♠8♣2♥ and the action checked through to the 10♥ on the turn and the 9♦ on the river.
Weiss finally led out with a bet of 550,000 and Ivey contemplated for a moment before making the call. Weiss turned over A♣5♠3♣2♣ for just a pair of deuces while Ivey showed A♥K♥K♣10♣ for a pair of kings to win the pot.
