Ivey Turns Kings into Bluff, Gets Called by Worse

Level 6
: 0/0, 4,000 ante
In a four-way action on the flop, Phil Ivey checked the
in the first position and Ben Lamb checked
. Rui Cao fired 20,000 with
and Alan Sass called in position, holding
.
Ivey, however, woke up with a check-shove, getting rid of Lamb and Cao. Sass called for his 192,000 total and Ivey found out that he was actually holding the better hand.
Ivey's kings held on the turn and
river and he forced another bullet from Sass.
