Smalley Spikes a King
Level 15
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
From middle position, Quoc Vu opened to 11,000 before Larry Smalley three-bet shoved all in next to act for 141,500. The action found its way back to Vu, and he snap-called.
Vu: 
Smalley: 
With Smalley in bad shape, the 
flop gave him some new life, and the 
landed on the turn. Needing to fade any ace or ten, the 
river ensured Smalley the double to nearly 300,000, as Vu dropped to 917,000.
After the hand, the nine seat stated that he folded one king preflop.
