Woods Doubles, Then is the Doubler

Level 8 : 300/600, 0 ante

James Woods

James Woods opened to 1,500 from late position and Paul Varano three-bet to 4,500 from the big blind. Woods potted, putting him all in for 11,000 and Varano made the call. It was the {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} of Varano versus the {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} of Woods and the board ran out {8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for the double.

On the very next hand, however, Woods would give back approximately 8,000 as his pocket queens were picked off by the {6-Spades}{2-Diamonds} of his opponent in the big blind, after getting it in on a {6-}{7-}{6-} flop. Woods couldn't find any help on the turn or river and his opponent doubled.
