I don't think Ivey had any great read. He just felt obligated to call due to amount invested and pot odds. It was a crying call hoping Howard either had the flush draw or he had thoughts of challenging Jamie Gold's legacy as best bluffer ever.

Ivey is about as cool as a gambler could ever be.

Doesn't give a [censored], wins effortlessly, doesn't cry when he loses. He really is "The Man."

QFT

IMO he is like one of the few gamblers I look up too. Him and Patrick prolly the only 2 in the world.

Hellmuth's awesome. Ferguson is so bothersome; I would get furious with him at table.

Really? Hellmuth is awesome and Ferguson makes me furious. Is this a level?

What does this mean?
Is using the word level, leveling?
Because everyone uses it. And to me it sounds like posing. Come up with new rants. PLease.
Or, legitimate language, and argument.
Thank you.

Just watched the west coast feed. I think you're right. It was a crying call. Lederer's poker face was so bad that hand, and he was trying to talk Ivey into folding. Lederer knew Ivey was close to calling, but was giggling and trying to talk so non-chalantly, considering the money in the pot, I didn't think it should of been that hard a call.

Still a great call by the best. It amazes how much Phil Ivey intimidates his fellow world class players. It just seemed to me Lederer was intimidated that whole hand versus Ivey.
