Matenga Crushes Smith

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

With just over 50,000 in the pot and the board reading {q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{a-Spades}{9-Spades} Terangi Matenga led out for 27,500 from the small blind. Rodney Smith was also in the hand and raised it up to 55,000 from middle position. Matenga then moved all in covering Smith who snap called with just short of 100,000 in chips.

Smith confidently tabled his {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} for two pair but was shocked when Matenga then rolled over his {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} for the top set.
The meaningless {7-Diamonds} completed the board and Smith was sent to the rail. Matenga moves up to 400,000 in chips.
