Ivey and Hanson, $4,000-$8,000 blinds
Phil Ivey and Gus Hanson were playing with an Asian fellow in a 3-handed $4,000-$8,000 mixed pot limit game at Commerce today. A Commerce regular told me there had been a hand where, at the end, the Asian fellow bet the pot, about $170,000, and Ivey thought for less than a second and called. The Asian fellow said, "ace high," and Ivey said "a pair," showed it, and took it down.

Ivey is good [/ QUOTE ] He's just on a long hot streak. And it can't go on forever, once he cools down he won't be any better than your typical 20/40 pro. Mark my words, he's already around five years, his luck is gonna end any day now... |

Interesting. Most often the asian would be Chaiu Chang (sp?). He is a winning player in that game from what I have seen dealing to them.
And recently Ivey was stuck over 800k if memory serves me in the Tunica game of same size. He told me that so it isnt hearsay. But he left Tunica a rather large winner once it was all over. |

4k/8k blinds no limit? I thought it was 100k max that you can lose per pot.

Deep. Hanson seemed to be shortstacked when I peeked over today, with Ivey having the lion's share of chips.

when I left this afternoon, doyle was in the game and he had all the chips. gus and phil had maybe $20-30,000 in front of each of them, and doyle had several hundred thousand in front of him. chau was long gone, and lyle berman had joined the game, but he didn't have any chips either. so much for the superiority of youth.
