Tomas Szwarcberg raises from UTG/cutoff to 100,000, Phil Ivey moves all in from the small blind for about 750,000, and Luis Gonzalez calls all in from the big blind for about 170,000.
Szwarcberg tanks for a while before he folds, and Gonzalez shows . Ivey turns over , and Gonzalez needs his hand to hold to stay alive.
The board comes , and Gonzalez wins the pot with his ace to double up in chips.

Phil Ivey – 580,000 (15 bb)
