Fortunate Turn of Events for Smith

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

A few hands ago, Dan Smith squeezed from the small blind and his three-bet got through. However, his hand got exposed due to some miscommunication, and the table saw {j-}{10-}.

Shortly afterwards, Smith was again seen in the middle of a raising contest, this time sitting in the big blind. He squeezed to 7,600 over a raise from under the gun and three flats. The action folded around to Bruno Portaro who studied Smith's remaining stack and then placed forward what looked like a covering pile of chips. Smith, to make sure, announced he was all in and Portaro declared the call for Smith's 38,600.

Smith: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Portaro: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Smith was ahead and Portaro couldn't catch up on the {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{8-Spades} board, shipping a juicy double to the high stakes superstar.

"Fortunate turn of events," Smith concluded.
