The Gentleman in question has a very good Live record, & I've played him many a time. He's wholly & entirely unpredictable, but he does well at the game.
He once called me in a big cash Game with 4-2, & flopped a straight. I said "what, WHAT, you called me with THAT, how?".
"I heard voices", he replied, looking up.
He's tremendous fun, but you DO want him on your table, as he is very beatable. But he don't half test you!
These guys who dance all the time are tremendous value, but you will take a knock or two along the way.
Ivanovic was very unlucky, but it's not a loss, it's a loan.

I had 55 in the SB in a limped pot.
Flop comes down Q54.
I end up all-in against 54 and it comes turn 4, river 4.
Actually incredible. I used poker calculator after and seen that i was 99.8% favourite to win the hand.
If it hadn't come on the back of 3 or 4 other shocking beats I'd have been laughing my head off.
Still nothing is worse than the hand I posted above
Dealt JJ in second position, i raised to 100 (5 x big blind), folds round to small blind who raises to 420. BB folds, flop comes J 9 5 rainbow. SB checks then i bet 400, then almost as the timer runs out they go all in. I thinking they;ve got A's or K's or drawing to a straight at the least. so with me holding the nuts i call, they show A's. Turn comes 3. and would you believe on the river comes the ace. so after trying for 2 weeks to qualify through the 2.40 satalites and finally making it wednesday im out after three bloody hands with nothing except for a broken mouse.
flop 222 bet pot, call turn 8 i go all in for £60 he calls with ace,four
THE RIVER IS A 2 NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Muse play isn't really that terrible, it definitely looks pretty bad when he gets looked up, but when people put in the 3rd bet on benign flops like that, they tend to have really big hands or hand that will fold when you go allin (ie, if he has just top pair or second pair or a PP like 99 he probably wouldn't 3bet the flop, and would tend to just call the raise a bit more..) so Muse does figure to win that pot a fair % of the time when F_Ivanovich folds, and against looser aggressive players like Ivanovich, the frequency with which they have "air" so to speak is going to be a reasonably high %.. whereas against your typical tight player at 10c/20c, the times they fold to an allin are a lot lower, so whilst it is almost definately a terrible play at limits where people dont fold, its not overly terrible at the higher stakes where peoples "ranges" aren't so tight.
just played a game stt bh i had 10 6 other guy pair 7's flop comes 5 8 7 steady betting
turn a 9 force him to go all in as i think thats it as the only hand that can beat me is quads then river flips over
a 7 is there very next hand i get a straight get knocked out by a flush on the river
thats poker
For example:
SNG - folded to me in cut-off and and i 3xBB raise Tc-Jc.
Folded to SB who calls, as does BB.
Flop: 5h-2c-6c. I bet 3/4 pot on the semi-bluff and SB only flat calls, BB folds.
Turn: Jd. I bet half the pot and SB pushes all-in. I call and he turns up 2d-7c - I've got him crushed.
River: 2h. Insane, you play the hand perfectly and get action from a loose player when you have the best hand, only to get insanely out-drawn.
SNG - I've got Ks-9s in late position. Early position raiser doubles the BB and I flat call. It's also called in the cut-off, both blinds fold.
Flop: Th-Jh-Qc - I've flopped the straight.
Player ahead of me pushes all-in and I insta-call. However, player behind me also calls.
P1 turns up Js-Qs (two pair) and P2 turns up 9c-Tc for bottom pair and an open-ender.
Turn: 8c, River Kc. and the idiot with 9c-Tc has out-drawn us both and back-door'ed a flush.
SNG - I limp from the SB with 6s-4c and the BB checks his option.
Flop: 4h-6c-5d. I bet half the pot and the BB immediately doubles this. I am sure he has an overpair so I put him all-in and he calls, turning up pocket 9's.
Turn: Tc. River: Td. Runner-runner overpair to counterfeit my two pair.
SNG - I have pocket Queens in the cut-off and triple the BB. The BB (very loose player, table bully) puts me all-in and I insta-call. He turns up Ah-7h.
Flop: 5d-Th-3s. Turn: 4s. River 6d. Making him a 7-high straight. Unbelieveable.
These are just a few of the occasions where I believe I've perfectly played a hand, got a player with a lesser hand to either bet into me or call, and each time I've been outdrawn. As I say, these insanely bad beats only seem to happen when you are all-in and up against a player with more chips than you.
