Guess he only noticed the Ace on the river, and missed that he had made a flush there. Over 2 million in chips, he could have used them at the final table.
haha, yea thought he misread that he got a flush.. hes pissed off as smith made him worried when he up till the pot 2 mil when he had not a single pair until A comes at river lol..

Ya I had seen this already , and it was pretty amazing alright. I don't understand how a player of his standard could be so sure that he didn't have a spade. You think the gome could have double checked at least!

I have already seen this. I have also heard a lot fo theories to explain what he did. Some people say that T.V. made a mistake with his hand, and he was not really honlding a spade. Others say that it was part of his strategy to confuse their opponents ahhahaha but I can't really believe this. (Actually the first one neither).
This only show us thta big mistake could be made by pros too.
Sickening, so bad. Just tired I guess, keep it up Ivey, love ur style, of poker and of life.
------------ It was a bad game, preflop both show a lot of strength (utgraise+blindreraise) and after flop both play too scared, the a9 guy is a donk anyway, but he did fool Ivey, sure Ivey put him on a big pair.
Holy smokes!!!! I don't believe what I just saw after watching the video. I'm sure Phil is looking back now and kicking himself in the behind. Not only that, because of his pro status he will never be able to let that one down

OMG. That is sick! But it is hard to maintain concentration during such a long tournament. That's why live poker is much much harder than online. He still remains one of the better players if you ask me. This could happen to everone when they lose concentration.
