Smith Doubles Through Ivey

Level 9 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Phil Ivey raised to 9,000 on the button and John Smith three-bet to 35,000 in the big blind. Ivey contemplated for a moment and got some advice from Smith.

"Put it in," Smith said with a smile. Ivey obliged and shoved all in which was quickly called by Smith for his last 80,600 chips.

John Smith: AQ
Phil Ivey: A10

The board ran out A43J5 and Smith's kicker was enough to earn a double-up through Ivey.
