Ivey Good at Showdown
Stud-8
Chen: X-X / / X
Ivey: X-X / / X
We breezed through the stud round without much action. In stud split, Bill Chen brought it in then called Phil Ivey's completion. Chen drew the high board on fourth, but checked it and then called another bet. He kept the high board with open kings on fifth street and bet there and on sixth. Ivey called each time, taking the two players to the river.
Chen opted for a check on the river, opening the door for an Ivey bet. Chen called, then mucked when Ivey turned up for a ten-high straight.
