Not-So-Shocking Double for Schock

PLH

Action folded to James Vanneman on the button and he put in a raise to 35,000. Mitch Schock was next to act in the small blind and he hesitated for a moment before three-betting to 80,000. The big blind got out of the way and action was back on Vanneman. He thought for about a minute before reraising pot, which covered his opponent. Schock snap-called with pocket rockets.

Schock: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Vanneman: {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

It was the wrong time for Vanneman to make a move, which became apparent after the flop came down {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, leaving him drawing thin. The {2-Spades} put an end to the suspense as Schock was guaranteed the double. The inconsequential {9-Spades} was put out on the river as Schock counted out his stack to get paid.
