Hunichen Gets the Best of Ivey

Level 4 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Chris Hunichen - Phil Ivey
Chris Hunichen - Phil Ivey

Chris Hunichen raised to 18,000 in the hijack and Phil Ivey called from the cutoff. They went heads-up to a flop of 6?5?2? and Hunichen started with a check. Ivey tossed in a bet of 30,000 and Hunichen check-raised to 90,000 which Ivey called.

The 6? paired the board on the turn and Hunichen fired out a bet of 150,000. Ivey still called and the 8? completed the board. Hunichen announced a bet of 500,000 which forced Ivey to use three time banks before laying his hand down.
