Naslund44 0 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Ivey Makes a Hero CallPhil Ivey opened for 135,000 from late position and Christopher Bach called from the big blind. Both players checked the {9-Clubs} {3-Spades} {3-Hearts} flop. The turn came the {9-Diamonds} and Bach bet 150,000. Ivey made the call. The river was the {7-Spades} and Bach fired a second barrel for 360,000. Ivey looked him up.Bach had nothing more than {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. Ivey's {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs} was good and he raked in the pot. He's now up to 7.1 million while Bach fell to 2.2 million. Link to post Share on other sites
Stiles2004 0 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'd rather see Antonio win than IveyHe's got more personality, seems like a nice dude, good for the game. Of course Ivey winning is good for the game too, but in terms of a vocal ambassador, Antonio is superior imo Link to post Share on other sites

When I met him for the TV show thing, his persona is the exact same as it reads in HSP or any tourney you've seen him. Charasmatic and vocal, but not vocal for the sake of hearing his own voice (insert one of MANY players here). He doesn't have NEAR ivey's resume, but I think he would be a great coverboy for the "pro wins '09 WSOP" that everyone's looking for. Link to post Share on other sites
bmtphs05 0 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hmm........A confusing hand on Blue 6 has resulted in some genuinely bad luck for Dennis Phillips. After two players folded, Phillips limped into the pot. It was then that the players noticed that the first two players had acted out of turn, mistakenly assuming that the big blind was in the 9-seat rather than the 8-seat. The action was backed up to allow the 9-seat to fold. Phillips' limp then also stood.Action proceeded past Phillips with folds all the way to Jeff Duvall, who raised his button to 150,000. That raise folded both blinds. Duvall, not realizing that Phillips had limped into the pot, then mucked his hand with action still pending on Phillips.Phillips couldn't believe his bad luck. Why bad luck, you ask? Only because he had been dealt {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}! He opened his hand and insisted that he be awarded the whole pot, including the 150,000 raise made by Duvall.The tournament had to be put on a five-minute pause to summon tournament director Jack Effel (who was out of the room) so that Effel could make a decision whether Duvall should have to forefeit all 150,000 chips or only the 50,000 that matched Phillips' original call. After Effel arrived and listened to a report of the action, he told Duvall that, by TDA Rules, if a dealer had killed Duvall's inadvertently, Duvall would be entitled to 100,000 chips back. But because Duvall had mucked his own hand, he had to forefeit all the chips in the pot if Phillips wanted to call. Phillips obviously did. Link to post Share on other sites

Jariso13 1 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Ivey and the woman at the final table would be a dream for poker. Even better would be to throw Antonio at the final table. He would eat up the media coverage and it would most likely be very good for poker. Ivey could get there which would get lots of coverage, but he might shy away from doing the bigger interviews that he would assuredly be asked to do which would end up limiting the amount of coverage that he receives. Hopefully a big name making the final table will help to bring poker into regular non poker playing homes, get them interested, and allow people to realize how ridiculous the UIEGA is.

FatBurger 0 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hmm........A confusing hand on Blue 6 has resulted in some genuinely bad luck for Dennis Phillips.I had to read it about 3 times, but I think it was the correct decision. Muck your hand and it's dead. Even if the other person has 72o, they can legitimately win. In a way it's similar to playing a tournament online when someone is sitting out on the big blind, and you can minraise from the SB to take it. Link to post Share on other sites
