Phil Ivey Doubles “The Hard Way”

Phil Ivey took a stand against a now big stacked (and gear up-shifting) Sam Greenwood, who’d just moved in preflop in mid position for [KsJh], his 4,710,000 putting the rest of his opponents to the test for their tournament lives. Ivey called all in for 2,130,000 with [AcJd]. Though Greenwood flopped the nuts with [AhQcTh], the runner-runner [TdTs] gave Ivey his reward for his risk, and he doubled with a full house.
