Smurfiting on the River Smurfit

Short-stacked and seeing a flop of {6-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs}, Alan Smurfit just shoved his last 17,500 with {5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. Jonathan Aguiar made the call with {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

The turn was the {K-Spades} and Smurfit was in need of help. However, the river brought the {8-Spades}, giving Smurfit the straight and continued life in the tourney. He's doubled to just under 40,000.
