Aces Propel Smith to a Pair of Doubles
Level 20
: 5,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Mark Smith has hit a heater picking up aces twice in short order and doubling both times.
In the first, a player in early position raised to 35,000 and the player on the button called. Smith then moved all in for 85,000 from the small blind and both his opponents called. When the flop fell 
, the early-position player checked and folded to a bet of 200,000 from the button.
Smith: 
Button: 
Neither the 
turn nor 
river changed a thing and Smith doubled.
Not long after, the player in the hijack raised to 30,000 and then called when Smith moved all in for 240,000 from the big blind.
Smith: 
Hijack: 
Again Smith woke up with pocket rockets and again he shipped the double after the board ran out 
.
Just like that Smith went from 85,000 up to 525,000!
