Phil Ivey was down to just one chip, a hundo. Now he's back up to 6,000. That's the story of one of the greatest players of all time. Phenomenal Ivey scored a series of doubles, with the latest happening as follows.
First, we saw Ivey all-in in a three-way pot after the second draw where Greg Mueller isolated the third player, battling heads-up against Ivey. He drew two while Ivey took one.
