Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Zachary Smyth shoved from the small blind to apply max pressure on the big blind, who was a short stack. The big blind woke up with a hand they were willing to go with, as they called to put themselves at risk for 17,500.
Opponent: 9♠9♥
Zachary Smyth: 10♦7♠
The big blind was in a great position to double up, as they only needed to fade the ten as an immediate concern as they went to a runout.
Smyth would find his ten twice when the flop came 10♠5♦10♣, improving to trip tens and sinking the big blind to a two-outer.
The K♠ turn and the 5♠ river upgraded Smyth to a full house as he scored the elimination.
