I guess I missed this season when it first aired, but am catching repeats of it now. Anyhoo, take a look at this insane hand:
I'd love to know Phil's thought process throughout the hand. Clearly he suspects his hand is good on the river, but I wonder where he thought he was at on the turn and why he didn't semi-bluff then if he knew he was going to seriously consider calling on the river. Maybe he didn't think his hand was good until after Dwan's river bet.
I don't know... but this is a pretty amazing hand to watch. I mean, can you even imagine if Ivey have called???
Two things:
Tom Dwan has balls (and a fairly decent poker face).
Phil Ivey is really, really good at poker.
