Default Why did Phil Ivey fold?

In High Stakes Poker tonight, why did Phil Ivey fold a King high flush draw on the flop? The bet on the flop wasn't a huge bet, he surprised me that he didn't call....was the king high flush draw not high enough? meaning he wasn't drawing to the nuts? thanks.not a paird board, 9 high flop I think.

Any poker you see on TV (except for the few live, unedited tournaments) has been edited like crazy. They play for hours and hours and show you a couple hands that they deem interesting. It's very difficult to judge the flow of the game or how someone has been playing by watching the TV version. There could be things in the play that we didn't see that cause certain players to act the way they do. Also, these players have played against each other many more times than just during HSP. Again, they have experienced way more vs. these players than we get to see. Any analysis we do is extremely flawed since we have so little of the necessary information. Still fun to watch though.
