Shon Smith Eliminated in 2nd Place ($31,858)
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Shon Smith limped on the button and Jasper May raised to 300,000 in the big blind. Smith made the call.
The flop came 3♠6♦9♠, May continued with a bet of 300,000, and Smith called.
On the 8♦ turn, May bet 600,000 and Smith made it 1,200,000 to go. May then moved all in to put Smith at risk, who had 2,015,000 behind. Smith quickly called.
Shon Smith: 9♥5♥
Jasper May: 6♠6♣
Only a seven on the river would save Smith, but the 4♥ completed the board to end his impressive tournament run.
