Ivey Continues Ascent
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Phil Ivey opened from the cutoff and was called by Phil Hellmuth in the small blind as well as John Monnette out of the big blind.
Both Hellmuth and Monnette took two cards on the initial draw while Ivey opted for one. Action then checked to Ivey who bet and received two calls.
The second draw saw Hellmuth and Monnette repeat their previous drawing pattern but Ivey chose not to take a card. Ivey then bet again after Hellmuth and Monnette checked. Neither player was going anywhere just yet as they both called to keep it a three-way hand heading to the final draw.
On the last draw, Hellmuth and Monnette took one card. Ivey again stood pat before betting after both of his opponents checked to him. That got a quick fold from Hellmuth but Monnette took a moment before ultimately deciding to let his hand go to send another pot Ivey's way.
