Smith Doubles Through Shakerchi

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

As we neared table seven we saw Talal Shakerchi with 3,200 and {8-Diamonds}{9-Spades} in front of him. Smith had about 23,000 and {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} in front of him. Shakerchi had apparently opened, and called the shove from Smith that followed.

The board didn't improve Shakerchi's hand, but it did Smith's while he didn't need it: {Q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. Smith is back up to around starting stack, Shakerchi drops to just under 200,000.
