Phil Ivey SLAYED by Frankenburger

phil ivey going into the heads match of pot limit hold em lost to andy frankenburger a former bracelet winner and wpt champ. frankenburger played great poker against phil, he made phil play big pots putting him out of his comfort zone and showed phil several crazy bluffs. These crazy bluffs made phil a bit timid in that match and several spots where he normally would bluff he didnt.
one such memorable hand that will be talked about is this:
(dont remeber preflop action) but flop came AQ4 w 2 clubs. Frankenburger check raised an ivey bet and ivey called. turn came 8 and frankenburger bet big again. ivey called. river 7 (i think). flush didnt get there and it went check/check. Phil didnt fire when checked to with what was most likely a flush draw.
and Frankenburger won that big pot with K5 off,no hand and no draw.

-congrats to andy although i was really pulling for ivey, he will eventually take over hellmuth if he continues to play for a long time

hellmuth blows really, poor ivey

Yeah, Hellmuth is really bad. Nice 6 dollar winnings. I'm sure you're a beast compared to Hellmuth. Get real.

lol was a good hu match for sure!

Wouldnt say slayed, more like Frankenberger ran like god. Unreal he won so many races, it was actually hilarious. Doubt if they palyed it out 10 times, he even wins 4 of them. Still, mans got 2 bracelets, lots of cash, and most likely is going to be around for a while.

He obv. has serious tilt issues, one huge leak in his game that was exposed in winning that bracelet. Good thing he has all that wall St. money to fall back on.

Ah,, you win some...

phil ivey wud hav got tired of winning he took it easy on helmuth i guess.

who is phil Ivey??

Last hand was a bit desperate. Gut shot and back door flush hope, into the nuts

no he definitely slayed ivey in that heads up match. he ran good sure, every1 has to run well to get deep in any tourney. and your point has no merit to the posted topic. i never said ivey was beaten by a BETTER player, or ivey was a worse player than frankenburger, i said he got slayed (he got beaten). i think every1 knows that ivey is a better player than frankenburger to which frankenburger readily admits, nonetheless he played good/crazy in that heads up match and had the right formula to slay the master. doesnt matter how many times outta 10 ivey wins, fact is frankenburgers, got the bracelet, and u gotta salute him for going into heads up against the best player in the world down 2 to 1 in chips and beating him.

this was well played heads up by frankenburger, I think him showing a few of his hands got into Iveys head

Phill ivey should have had it but i guess he felt sorry for him!

When was this match and how much did he lose?

a few nights ago. how much did he lose? idk what your asking, ivey got second place. as far as bracelet bets that ivey has, nobody knows but its presumed that he stands to win millions if he can win a bracelet this summer. so in that sense by placing second he lost out on a chance to win a lot of $

These tourneys are almost always won by the player who runs like god. They're all pros and bluffing if part of the game but they know bluffing gets you killed more than not.

Stu Unger and Phil Ivey are inspirational geniusus

Hope he makes the 50k final table. The field of 108, now 26, is stacked. Should be a great final table. Phil Hellmuth, however, super short stacked. Isildur chip leader lol.

i like isildurs chances a lot. He didnt do much on day one and i remember thinking, for some reason i have a feeling he will be at the final table. Now hes chipleader and my hunch seems to have proved right, altho with his wild playing style the chiplead doesnt really mean anything

Poor ivey, i usually pull for him.

super short stacked , n i have a feeling he will be at the final table.

phil ivey is the bestt!!!! hellmuth sucks jejejeje :?p

ill try and find the video to this perticular hand, if there is one. im interested to see the look on his face. last video i watched of ivey he was bluffed and took five minutes to throw his cards in absolute disgust. he did not have a great hand, but something playable. i think there were k q on board, and ivey had low pair.

Everyone loves jumping on the "Phil Helmuth Sucks" bandwagon. Most people who say that can't support it with evidence though. They just like being trendy.

12 WSOP Braclets hardly equates to sucking, regardless of how many Events he plays in.

ivey's the best and HELLmuth sucks

phil ivey is a robot really is a robot, no tells, no emotions well sometimes but i think he is a real robot.
