Elliot Smith limped in and was faced by an all-in jam by Tianyuan Tang. Smith though for just a few seconds before slamming down a stack, making a call to win the championship.

Smith: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Tang: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

As the crowd gathered, the dealer patted the table and swept out a {6-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop. Tang's crowd erupted as the local player hit a set of sixes, almost guaranteed a double up for the chip lead. Almost.

Smith needed running spades to eliminate his opponent. The dealer patted the table again and laid down a {2-Spades} on the turn. A collective gasp echoed around the table. As more spectators gathered, the dealer tapped the table one more time and dropped the {3-Spades} on the river, giving Smith a flush and the PokerStars Championship Macau Main Event Title.
