Final pot

The read

Gal's A♠ A♦ and Ivey's J♥ J♦ go heads-up after Gal's preflop 4-bet to $25,000. Mikki, who called Ivey's earlier $6,000 3-bet, folds before the flop. On T♦ 6♠ 4♣, Ivey checks and calls Gal's $20,000 bet. The T♠ turn pairs the board and both players check. Ivey leads for $40,000 on the 2♦ river, and Gal calls. Each now has two pair with the tens on the board, but Gal's aces are higher than Ivey's jacks. Gal takes the $176,400 pot.
