As Dan Smith recounted for PokerNews, Michael Addamo opened to 2,200 from the hijack and Smith three-bet to 6,000 from the cutoff. Addamo called.
Addamo checked on the flop of 
and Smith continued with a bet of 4,500. Addamo called. The Australian checked again on the 
turn and Smith bet 10,000. Addamo again called.
Addamo checked a third time on the 
river and Smith bet enough to put Addamo all in for around 25,000. Addamo made the call. Smith showed 
for a king-high straight, while Addamo held 
for the lower end of the straight.
A few minutes later, Addamo returned to the tournament area and took a seat at another table with a fresh starting stack.
