Level 29
: 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Dan Smith opened to 200,000 from under the gun and Iaron Lightbourne called from the hijack to see a 
flop fall.
Smith continued for 250,000 and Lightbourne made the call before both players checked the 
on the turn.
The river landed the 
and Smith bet 650,000 which Lightbourne instantly called.
Smith tabled his 
for king-high, but it would be Lightbourne's 
that would see him river a pair (although he was already ahead) to scoop the pot and climb to 5.6 million as Smith slipped to 8.5 million in chips.
