Van Alphen Doubles Through Ravn

A massive hand just took place that has seen Niels van Alphen climb past the one million chip barrier.

Mickey Petersen opened the betting with a raise to 50,000 and Aage Ravn three-bet to 125,000, something that has happened on numerous occasions so far today. Next to act was van Alphen and he four-bet shoved for 528,000 in total, immediately folding out Petersen but Ravn looked like he was going to call; and he did!

Ravn{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
van Alphen{K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

Ravn made the call with just a pair of deuces and van Alphen looked set to double up. The {9-Hearts}{A-Spades}{K-Spades} flop was ideal for the kings of the Dutchman but the {6-Spades} turn drew some "ooohs and aaahhs" from the crowd as Ravn had a spade in his hand. The dealer burned a card and put out the river.....{8-Hearts}, safe for van Alphen and he doubled up.
