Burns Puts the Screws to Ivey, Who Uses All Time Banks

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 3,000 ante

Kahle Burns defended big blind from a 10,000 open by Phil Ivey. He check-called 10,000 more on {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and then 35,000 on the {9-Clubs}. He checked a final time on the {9-Hearts} and Ivey bet 90,000, leaving about 112,000 back. Burns used a time extension then slid in enough to put Ivey all in.

Ivey shuffled chips with both hands and went deep into the tank. He used two time extensions, then three. He said something to himself and smiled, then fired in his fourth.

"We won't see this hand, right?" Ivey asked the tournament director, who shook his head in the negative.

Ivey emptied his bank of extensions and continued to think until he finally folded at the last second.

"Good fold," Bryn Kenney said. "He would have had to show if that was a bluff.

"If someone uses all their time banks and you bluff them, you have to show. Just for increased mark-up for the rest of your life. You're actually getting paid to show."
