Favorable Runout Gives Smith A Boost
Level 13
: 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
All of the chips got into the middle preflop between Ian Smith in the cutoff and his opponent in the hijack.
Hijack: 
Ian Smith: 
"Aces versus ace-king," said another player at the table. The flop 
prompted more of a reaction from the table before everything got silent for the turn 
. Things only stayed quiet for a moment, however, as the river 
came to give Smith Broadway and earn him the pot.
The hijack's stack was counted to be 149,000, while Smith's was just beyond that at 166,000. As a result, he earned the knockout and now has a stack north of 300,000 going into the final 40-minute level of the night.
