    You have to include the Quad Aces hand based on the sheer unlikelyness of it all!

    Well, I guess Jackson thought ivey would probably c/r a Jack on that baord because of how many draws he could rep, and so though alot of his range was draws air, when jackson raises, Ivey inexplicabley re-raises, cuz jackson is probably shipping draws cause of how shallow stacks are, so maybe he has relevant previous where he's seen jackson play his draws passively? Anyway, at this point Jackson thinks phil would prob flat a jack cuz a 3b is turning his hand face up (it's like '06, 3b bluffs havent been invented yet), so thinks air and draws are now a huge part of ivey's range. He doesn't ship cuz he thinks he'll be called by draws and fold out air - and he thinks he'll accomplish the same by makign a smaller raise so he's getting a better price on his bluff.

    Then ivey shoves cuz he is a super-user ldo.

    This hand truly amazed me. As much as Helmuth annoys me at times, to me this was just sheer brilliance.

    Wasn't the Zeidman-Harman hand one Harrington analysed in Vol 1?

    Sorry, not spamming, just watching then posting...

    You have to wonder what the action was on the Quad Aces v Royal Flush before the turn. There doesn't seem that much in the pot

    Pre-flop - Mabuchi 81.9% favourite AA v JK
    Phillips looks like he had the button, he'll either have called Mabuchi's raise to have position throughout, or raised from the button and Mabuchi called.

    Post-flop - Mabuchi 83.9% favourite AAA v Gutshot - the flush draw isn't even out yet
    Action on Mabuchi, no flush draw, 10J gives and OESTD, but that's all that's really out there at this time. Couldn't blame him for checking, then I guess Phillips either makes a button raise or sees the free card.

    Post-turn - Mabuchi 18.2% favourite AAA v Straight & Flush Draw.
    Now there are more straight draws out there and the flush draw. This is where I would have liked to have seen the action.
    Mabuchi either controlled the pot size with a bet, or Phillips made a value bet, knowing he was probably in the lead and had draws to the flush.

    Still, got to love the huge chip push on the end (Copyright Phil Hellmuth)
