Straver Bombs the River
Level 10
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Johannes Straver called from the small blind and Phil Ivey raised to 48,000 from the big blind. Straver called.
Straver check-called a 40,000 bet from Ivey on the Q?K?5? flop and then both players checked on the 7? turn.
The 8? completed the board and Straver overbet the pot for 270,000. Ivey burned up a couple time extensions before opting to lay his hand down and Straver collected the pot.
