Smirnov On Ice

[user66118]

Matthew Woodward just knocked off Mikhail Smirnov in a pretty sizable pot.

The board showed {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

when Smirnov shoved, and Woodward made the quick call with his {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{10-Spades}

flush. Smirnov's {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

was in bad shape, and he was looking for a spade to stay alive. The river {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

was indeed not a spade; it was the wrong color entirely, and Smirnov has been eliminated.
