Double Up For Ivey

Phil Ivey opened to 2,400 from the button and directly behind him, the player in the small blind three-bet to 6,800. It was folded back to Ivey, who asked for a count before announcing he was all in for about 24,000 total. His opponent called and hands were turned up.

Ivey: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Opponent: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The {K-Spades}{9-Hearts}{K-Hearts} flop left Ivey's opponent shaking his head. The {Q-Spades} turn and {4-Hearts} river kept Ivey in the lead and he doubled through.
