Smith Stays
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
In one of the last hands of level 15 (2,500/5,000 with 500 ante) Agshin Rasulov opened for 12,000 from middle position. Dan Smith in the big blind was the sole caller.
The flop came 
and Smith check called a bet of 12,000.
Both players checked the 
on the turn, and the dealer placed the 
on the table to complete the board.
Smith bet out 13,000 with 72,500 behind. After just a little bit of thinking, Rasulov raised to 31,000.
Smith tanked for quite some time before eventually releasing his cards into the muck.
