Poker after Dark week 4

So after the worse week of poker tv ever aired (The Champions week feat. Moneymaker, Gold, Chan, Brunson, Mortenson and Ferguson), poker after dark finally got their act together and is having a great week. The table is classic. Sam Farha, Tony G, Mike Matusow, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, and Andy Bloch. These guys are hilarious and Sammy is fantastic. I can watch that guy play all day. He doesn't play ABC poker or as I like to call it by another 3 letter acroynm "NBA poker". Ivey is his quiet grumpy self with his I'd rather be in the 9th Ring of Hell look. He looks like it is an inconvenience being there.

Great hand.

Sammy has 75 of spades, Matusow A9 of hearts, and Ivey with pocket 6's (spades, red 6). Flop comes 986 2 spades. Sammy flops the straight, Mike TPTK, and Ivey bottom set. Ivey bets, Sammy raises and Mike reraises. Ivey pushes all in and Sammy calls, Mike folds. Sammy is ahead. Turn comes a Queen and the river is a Queen. Sick beat!!! Sammy crippled but hangs around till he makes a bad call against Ivey for all of his chips. Ivey chip leader. Hellmuth playing like a donkey and Tony G hardly playing. The players are talking which is great compared to last week. I've heard that week 5 which is next week is supposed to the best one filmed so far. We shall see.
