Title: What a great play Post by: bobby1 on January 20, 2006, 12:08:56 AM From Ben Grundy's blog...I hope he doesnt mind. On a side note Ivey knocked out Marcel with a great call. Ivey raised UTG to 3500 to play. Blinds were 600/1200. Marcel called on the button. Flop 29T rainbow. Ivey bet 5000. Marcel pushed all in for about 25000. Ivey ponders for 2/3 minutes.... then says i am calling as i think you have JQ which is the only hand i am dominating. Ivey turns over QK and wins the pot with K high.

that's awesome Title: Re: What a great play Post by: Sark79 on January 20, 2006, 10:20:27 AM I think it would take the avarage player all of his/her life to learn to make plays like that one, If they ever could reach that ability level. Fantastic.

When I see Phil Ivey make plays like this, it makes me think that he has the ability to throw a brick through those windows, climb inside, and have a good nose around before he comes to his decision.

If he then turned over 7-8 suited or 7-4 o/s and was making a move "Wilson style" then maybe Ivey isnt as good as everyone makes out....... ::) Title: Re: What a great play Post by: Sheriff Fatman on January 20, 2006, 01:01:13 PM was that the same Phil Ivey that Roy "The boy" was ridiculing earlier on the pokerzone channel ? Please tell me this isn't true! Ridiculing him for what exactly?

I reckoned that he must've thought a gutshot and 2 overs, maybe putting him on a10! But hearing that he called marcels cards and was right is amazing... This guy does seem to be a level above anyone at the moment, I would love to play this guy! You would learn so much being at the table with him... He was still outplayed by andy black in the wsop main ( A2 third raise vs iveys raise and reraise with k6 lol ) i officially feel like i have sooo much to learn now! |
