. It is checked to Smith who bets 150,000. Scott folds, but Rho raises it up to 350,000. Smith calls and the {6-Diamonds}

falls on the turn. Rho bets 500,000 and Smith thinks for a minute before making the call. The river is the {3-Diamonds}

and both players decide to play it safe and check. Rho shows {10-Diamonds}

and Smith throws his hand into the muck.

Peter Rho climbs back up to around 3,500,000 while Smith dips just under that mark.
