Posted by Editor | Filed under Chris Ferguson, London 2008, Million Dollar Cash Game '08, Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey just won a $531,000 pot from Chris Ferguson. Phil Hellmuth, with J-4 decided to raise. Phil Ivey called with 3-3. Chris Ferguson reraised with A-A. I think the total bet by Chris was $27,000.
Hellmuth, of course, folded and Ivey pretty quickly called. He was getting the right odds to hit a set, but only if he could get paid. He didn’t know he was against aces (but that’s what he was hoping).
Ivey flopped a set of threes on a nine-high board. Chris bet $40,000. Ivey raised to $100,000. Chris called. The turn was another nine. Ivey moved all-in and Ferguson called.
The river was a five, and just like that, Ivey was over $1 million, ahead over $300,000, and Ferguson was $100,000 loser. He rebought for another $100,000.
That was just before the hour-break at 5 PM. The money on the table is now close to $3.5 million
