i want to know if he would have played the same in a ring game, or if he was short stacked, its always nice to know that if you are called on your bluff you are till the 3:2 chip leader, some people might think it doesnt change much but i think it changes a huge amount

was it brilliant play or shear stupidity. hard to tell lol. i spose it would help if u seen the rest of the match so u knew what these guys were capable of.
do you think the other guy knew he was bluffing against a high card?

c'mon just look at the other guy hes totally pale and sweating he gives ivey so many reads ... i think ivey is a genius at reading other players and this guy gives him so many hints ! it's still a sick play by both of them but ivey is just the better gambler and in the end he won because he has this stonecold pokerface

that is an insane play, i mean being heads-up and short stacked i would think if the other player has a jack or even a 7 he would of went all in with that hand and that kind of a flop so i can see abit of waht ivey was thinking... but still with Q high, when theres a k or an ace out there.. he must had a good read on teh other player and new he woulda bet higher preflop with a k or an ace
