Level 14 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a flop of {j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, Doug Polk got his last 65,000 all in and was called by Dan Smith.

Smith: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Polk: {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Polk went with his open-ended straight draw, which he needed to hit to overcome Smith's top pair with flush redraw. Neither the {5-Diamonds} turn nor {9-Spades} river helped Polk, and he wished the table good luck before exiting the tournament area.
