Ivens Doubles Through VanderWoude

Level 13 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Todd Ivens
Todd Ivens

Andy Ernstein raised to 6,000 on the button, and Michael VanderWoude three-bet to 24,000 from the small blind. Todd Ivens four-bet shoved for 57,500 from the big blind, and after Ernstein folded, VanderWoude tanked for a minute, then put a column of 5k chips out, slowly pushing them towards Ivens' stack to make the call, much to the delight of the table.

Todd Ivens: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Michael VanderWoude: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

VanderWoude's hunch was true, and although he picked up some chop outs, the {3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} board left Ivens in front for the double.
