Level 10 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Dan Smith raised to 180,000 from the cutoff and Rick Salomon three-bet to 580,000 in the big blind. Smith called and they saw a flop of {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Salomon led out for 600,000 and Smith liked enough of what he saw to make the call.

The turn brought the {7-Hearts} and Salomon continued to fire for another 900,000. Smith stuck around to see the {4-Diamonds} on the river and Salomon led out for 2,000,000. Smith thought for a few moments but then slid his cards to the muck.
