There is a reason why Phil Ivey is considered to be the greatest poker player of all time! This weekly poker hand shows exactly why!

In this poker hand Phil Ivey battles a regular of the Hustler Casino Live stream – Andy Stacks. Andy in his own right is a fantastic poker player but he openly admitted on this stream that he was a big Phil Ivey fanboy and couldn’t wait to play a hand against him! Well he managed to get his wish but I imagine he was hoping to make some more money from him after he turns a flush.

The hand starts with a 3-bet from Ivey preflop with AKo and Andy decides to defend his open with K9s. The flop goes check/check and on the turn when Andy turns the flush he makes an overbet. Fortunately for Andy, Ivey has now made top pair. Can Ivey sniff out this value bet from Andy and find a way to fold an extremely strong poker hand?

This particular poker stream had some of the most talked about characters in the poker industry right now including Robbi Jade Lew & Garrett Adelstein. This poker hand happened just before the hand that everyone has been talking about!
