Smith Doubles

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Eugene Katchalov opened the pot preflop with a raise to 18,000 from middle position. Gavin Smith was next to act and moved all in for 195,000. After asking it to be counted down, Adam Levy announced that he was all in as well. Everyone quickly folded, including Katchalov, and the cards were placed on their backs.

Smith: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Levy: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The flop was {9-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Levy remained in good shape to knock out Smith. However, the turn was the {a-Spades} and left Levy drawing to only two outs. The {4-Diamonds} hit the river and gave Smith his much needed double up while Levy fell to 275,000.
