YESSSSS MY MAN IS ROCKIN

Thoughts on stacking for 20 mil with a small flush anyone? I think I might have flatted the 6 mil bet. But then again who am I?

Would've flatted it too :p One more card to come and you've got the 5 and 3. Not likely that 7 out of the 13 cards of the same suit have reared their heads though, so I can understand pushing with a flush if you've caught one...

Right. But the awesomeness of making the November Nine has to count for something, so even a slightly less +EV play could make it worth it to just flat. Not to mention there are FH possibilities.

It's bad for Ivey though, just a SS on his right and 2 deeper stacks on his left that seem to be playing semi-tight. If Akenhead goes out soon it will be nice for Ivey to be behind Moon and Smith though.

position on akenhead is a good thing for ivey, he is a fairly solid player

I'll take that bet vanq :). Hopefully Ivey can both make the final nine plus have some sort of decent stack to have a chance to win.

Anyone want to give an over/under on how many more times PN will use some variation of the form "Ivey over the Moon" when Moon loses a big pot tonight?

Ivey's been playing really passively preflop, I wonder why? Or maybe it's just that they aren't talking about the hands where he raises and everyone gets out of the way.

i think stack sizes are such that it is most profitable for him to do so
