of course dia can only beat a flat out bluff, phils not going all in with aces and jacks or or queen 10 or something worse than a flush he either has kings full, aces full , queen high flush jack high flush quad dueces or absolutly nada and that was the case gotta give it to dia he make a tough call and if he was wrong he was still in the tourney
Another thing that helped Dia call i think is: knowing Ivey's mindset and if Ivey was bluffing on the flop and turn its unlikely he will just check and give up the pot and leave himself with a crippled 90k left to play shortstack with late in the tourney, thats just not Phil Ivey poker
You know I don't think Dia could possibly have put a read on Phil there. I think he considered the size of the pot and to top things off, he had a chance of eliminating Ivey. If Ivey did have a diamond or full house Dia would still be in the tournament with a fairly large chip stack.
sorry i meant the 10 high flush not he jack high flush

Great play and a great call. Pure and simple. Both made plays that would win them the tournament.

One of the sickest plays I've ever seen. Great bluff by Ivey but a better (more gutsy or just stupid?) read by Dia.

That call by Dia was just some dumb idiot playing poker. He did not read, look for a tell etc..he just took a dumb gamble and hoped he got lucky.
