Double Shot of Smirnov for Stern

Level 3 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Mikhail Smirnov is the second player to bust today and the Russian took his defeat with grace and a big smile.

He had 142,500 chips when he committed them all pre flop with {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Dani Stern was his opponent in the hand and came along for the ride with {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}. The board ran {9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{k-Clubs} to give Stern the bigger pair despite falling behind on the flop.

Seeing as Smirnov was seen pulling out wads of cash and chips from a satchel shortly after going broke, it is expected he'll be back in the action very soon.
