Live Poker on Thanksgiving Day

[Thrahl]

Just finish watching it. Surprising how tight everyone was early on with the exception of Devilfish. He was raising almost every hand. He was dominating the early goings. Winning almost every hand he played in uncontested.

Matusow was first to exit, he maybe played 3 hands the whole night. Admittedly he never got dealt anything decent but he may as well not have show up. Even Gus was trying to play solid but it was only a matter of time before he made his move. He was short stacked and called Ivey's all in with 10 6 of clubs vs Ivey's pocket 77. Ivey flopped a set but Gus as usual sucked out with runner, runner clubs. At this point Gus is in good shape chip wise, But A few hands later Gus calls Juanda's all in with Q8o (go figure) he was dominated by Juanda's KQ, no suck-out this time. Ivey grinded his way back from being the short stack, doubled up through Jesus. In the end he was heads up vs Juanda. A few hands go buy Juanda Moves in with Q6o, Ivey finds pocket Kings and insta calls. He doubles up and Juanda is crippled. Ivey takes it a few hands later when he calls with A 8 vs Juanda's 10 4 suited. Juanda Flops a pair of 4's but Ivey makes a straight on the river to win it.
