   Btw this is never steaming like someone suggested, Ivey was so in the zone in that particular session (I think it was the session played in the first 3 or 4 episodes op HSP season 6) He just makes this bluff, because he can and he reads both Greenstein and Veldhuis perfectly

   @girlie347 Iveys swings when gambling are in the millions within a mere half hr, 197k is nothing to him.

   @girlie347 the same thing goes for the opponent who easily could have called since it wasn’t his money. It’s a lot more difficult to bluff against an opponent who’s got nothing to loose

    @geeisthisnametaken Because they staked themselves in theory. They had alot of equity in the site.

    @girlie347 Yeah ok, then explain why Lederer never made moves like this. Why was Ferguson such a nit? Both had plenty of FTP money. Ivey’s been playing like this even before he ever signed with FTP.

    The bluff is now a lot less impressive, now that it has been revealed that the Full Tilt pro’s were staked by the site. So for them it wasn’t real money they were risking, so it’s easy to bluff it all off if it’s not your own money anyway.

    Lex not acting like a man with a big hand. If you have aces in that spot you would be far more interested in how deep Greensteins and Iveys stacks are. And Ivey knows that it’s a good spot for a 4bet bluff since it’s CO vs BTN.

    Lex mentions that “all these great spots keep coming up.” Must have been a pattern of him trying to steal or squeeze during the session. Lex appears to look at his cards early in the deal and Phil glances over at Lex while Barry was making his raise. So while Phil was trying to catch Barry trying to steal from the cutoff, he was also trying to get a glimpse of Lex who may have been trying to steal in the straddle. Phil probably saw if Lex was interested in his hand early on.

    @DrGoGo7 If Lex had rockets Phil would have known. He’s been watching people play poker his whole life; he knows the difference between KJ and AA.

    @DrGoGo7 sure, he had a read on lex, and knew he had no big hand

19. DrGoGo7 Says:
    March 18th, 2012 at 2:29 pm

    @thefrigidness how did he knew that lex doesn’t have pocket rockets or some other monster hand? He just got lucky that nobody had a good hand and thats it. I bet that there was a time that he had a bluff like this but someone paid him and he lost, but nobody speaks about that becouse it’s nothing special.
