Ivey down under 9M. Shove time, almost M<10.

 

[GeoffLacey]

Phil Ivey is winning this poker tournament.

 

[coolnout]

biggest pot of the tourney so far:

Moon raises 1m, Begs comes over the top 3m, Moon calls.

flop
3s 4s 2d

9million pot

begs bets 5.3 million
moon reraises 15 million

BEGS SHOVES all in
Moon FOLDED OMG

OMG OMG

IT WAS 6 MILLION TO CALL

 

[arahel_jazz]

holy crap 45 million pot with 6Mil to call and MOON FOLDS to BEGLIGHTER's ALL-IN!!!!!


Helmuth is speechless....

Moon is making himself look terrible.

 

[Jarod1231]

WOW, MOON IS A MORON

 

[No Brainer]

should moon even be at this table? he folds with 7 to 1 odds? after reraising him after the flop?

 

[smd173]

Moon is an idiot. Can't wait to see that one on TV. Lee Childs is now off the hook for folding QQ to Yang's JJ a few years ago.

 

[bryan24]

how did this guy get all those chips? OMG how do you not call 6 million there????? into a 45 million pot?

 

[smd173]

how did this guy get all those chips?

Well, Billy Kopp gave them to him.

 

[PattyR]

i need to stop coming to this thread..but im just too dam curious.

how the hell moon didn call that is beyond me..cant wait to see it on TV

 

[ukaliks]

Wounder what moon had to re-raise preflop then fold when gettin 7-1 odds lol. Can't wait to see it on TV lol.

Ivey's playin a lil bit too snug but he's still got $8.5mill to play around with...

 

[GeoffLacey]

Pretty standard fold

 

[Xavier]

I really didn't expect Moon to self destruct like this.
What hand could he have that justified folding?
If he has any pair hes got to call, if he has ace anything he has a gutshot so he has to call.
He raised under the gun so you'd think he has some decent hand.
Unless he just raised with some hand like 98 or 109 to mix it up and tried some mad bluff on the flop, but even then he has outs against some hands Begleiter could have like 88, 77, or a flush draw

 

[No Brainer]

I think they were saying that he had an overpair like 8s or 9s and he thought he was up against AK of spades?? That seems like an instacall to me...

Will he to wait till its on tv to be sure though...

 

[Xavier]

Pretty standard fold

RU serious?

 

[No Brainer]

RU serious?

Were there 2 spades on the board? can't remember now.
If that were the case Begleiter had 18 outs and is about 60 - 65% favourite.
That means Moon only needs 2 to 1 odds to call.
How can he fold for 7 to 1 odds on the pot?

You can't watch it online, we are listening to it on bluffmagazine.com

Yes, it was 4-3-2 with 2 spades.

I love how everyone goes silent when Ivey shoves... everybody wants him to win
