Ivanov Doubles With Loose Shove

Hristofor Ivanov open raised to 2,500 from middle position, the button called and Damiano Aloi, known online as Dammo_23, three-bet to 7,000. Marco Sposito flat called in the big blind, then Ivanov four-bet all in for 48,000. The button and small blind folded, leaving just Sposito in the pot, who eventually made the call.

"No, don't call!", said Ivanov, "I am very not strong."

Players flipped over their cards, with Ivanov at risk.

Hristofor Ivanov: 9♣8♦
Marco Sposito: 5♥5♠

"What the fuck?", said Aloi, who had already folded his hand.

The board ran out 10♣10♥J♦3♠7♦. Ivanov picked up a straight draw on the flop and the river completed his straight. He won the pot and doubled up. The pair laughed across the table as the chips moved to Ivanov.

Aloi gestured that he had folded pocket sevens, which means he would have made a full house. In any case, Ivanov brought his stack up to around 100,000.
