Petrangelo FInds a Dream Flop to Double Up Through Ivey
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Phil Ivey opened from middle position and Nick Petrangelo called in the big blind.
The flop came 9♠2♦6♥ and Petrangelo checked it over to Ivey, who bet 11,000. Petrangelo then made it 33,000. Ivey threw in a bunch of green chips, worth 25,000 each, and Petrangelo called off his stack of 109,000.
Nick Petrangelo: 6♠2♠ 
Phil Ivey: A♥9♥
Petrangelo had flopped bottom two pair and needed to fade aces and nines to double up. A 4♦ on the turn added a few more outs for Ivey, but the 6♣ on the river gave Petrangelo a full house and the double-up.
