Smith Saves By Kaplan's Fold

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Dan Kaplan limped in from middle position, and Jerod Smith jammed for 65,000 on the button. The small blind three-bet shoved for 115,000, and Kaplan tank-folded.

Jerod Smith: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The {10-Diamonds} came in the window, along with the {2-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, giving Smith the lead. The {3-Spades} turn and {q-Diamonds} river changed nothing, and Smith doubled up.

Kaplan looked distraught at his fold, and someone asked, "Two jacks?" Kaplan nodded. "Two jacks."
