my friend ivan commented about one of the hands played,

Just witnessed a huge pot between Phil Ivey and Tom Dwan in a high stakes cash game here at the APT macau. Here are the details.

These were the few know players that were players, the rest i have never seen before.

Dwan, Ivey, Chau Giang, Jon Juanda.

Blinds were 5k/10k HKD

Anyways here was the hand.

Ivey straddles to 20k
Dwan double straddles to 40k.
MP calls 40k
Ivey completes the 40k
Dwan maskes a raise to 180k total
MP folds
Ivey re-raises to 1million alomost all-in
Dwan instant gos all-in
Ivey snap calls
Pot is approx 3M HKD
Hands Ivey ATos, Dwan 77
Board runs out, no Ace no Ten. Dwan ships the 3Million Pot.
When i left he was up about 3.5M HKD
And to mention he was happily drinking beer.

I don't know how straddling works but how does Dwan reraise over his own raise?

because he double straddle'd, ivey straddle'd first (like a bigger blind) and dwan was next to act so has the option to double straddle (double the bigger blind, without being dealt cards until the straddle was posted), the guy after dwan could have triple straddle'd and so on so forth

Anyone else think this may have been a metagame/table image play on both parts?

He already had about two thirds of his stack in the middle (which does sound somewhat suspicious, like the poster above said. Weird raise sizing by Ivey.).

Since when is Ivey and Dwan so best friends they would swap 50% and do all sorts of crazy stuff just because they're playing in a big game with other professional poker players and some business men. This is big for us but probably not as big for them, especially Ivey.

IceCreaMz · 11-13-2010, 12:44 PM

Is this game actually going on again or are they still on a break?

More likely a metapost/forum image play by a poster who wants some fame and makes up some stuff
