Capture

Patrik Antonius opens from the button to 2,000 with Diamond JClub J and Phil Ivey defends, holding Diamond 7Heart 6 to see the Spade QClub 10Heart 8 flop. Ivey check-calls a continuation bet of 2,251 and a Spade 9 lands, giving both players a straight with Antonius having the best of it.

Ivey taps to Antonius who bets 4,908 and Ivey check-calls once more. The Spade A completes the board, Ivey checks and Antonius fires 10,441 into the middle. Ivey instantly lets go of his straight, sending the pot to Antonius.

Patrik Antonius – 112,500
Phil Ivey – 87,500
