Smith Reduces the Field by One
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Mark Smith opened to 24,000 from early position and Maksim Shornikau moved all in for approximately 145,000. Smith snap-called to put Shornikau at risk.
Maksim Shornikau: K?Q?
Mark Smith: K?8?
Shornikau was in a great position to double up and remained ahead on the A?J?5? flop and 7? turn. Smith drilled a pair on the 8? river to send Shornikau to the rail and take the pot.
