Watch from about 3:00 - 4:00 in.
Phil Ivey mucks his flush, he didn't realize he had a flush he mucked to Aces up. Lost just over 1M chips because of it.

Wow, even the best player in the world can make a beginner mistake and neglect to quickly check his cards one last time before mucking them. He misread his hand, he had the wrong read on Smith, and he seemed oblivious that there was a four-flush board, steaming about the Ace on the river that was actually good for him.

I saw a bit of a eye brow raise towards the end of that video...you think he realized what he did after the fact.....
The read on his facial expression after the hand was mucked looked like he was trying to recount his hand and if indeed he had the 8s or 8c....
This was also weird for Ivey to call a 3bet in position then check the turn after. I would have assumed that the check on the turn would have been a flood gate for him to bet. Maybe he didn't want to get bluffed out of the pot, but at the same time he must have had an idea that he was either way ahead or way behind with the check on the turn. With 2M in the pot it would be ok IMO to fire out 750K...
I guess the shock is when the other hand is opened and he looks and then folds, that is what gets me.....I would be trying to draw a spade on my card with a pen at that point.....

Seriously, though, what's the line? A player who never gets bluffed is never going to be a winner, or some such.
Caveat - have not watched the clip.
There was no bluff Milo. Villian had A,9 and caught the As on the river which made Ivey (8,8 ) a flush to his 8s. Villian turned over his hand showing A and Ivey mucked without showing. It looks like he realized seconds later that he had a flush.
Rookie mistake imo.. Never would do that myself...

In that case, please see my first post in this thread. Or even my second.
Ivey wins the Main Event this year, and he will credit THIS hand for embarassing him enough to focus the awesome poker mind that sits above his cerebral cortex on NOTHING but poker in the weeks leading up to the Final Table.
