Cunniff Spikes Ace on River to Stay Alive

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Gerald Cunniff
Gerald Cunniff

Nicholas Smith raised from middle position, the player directly to his left three-bet jammed and Gerald Cunniff came over the top for 67,500 from the cutoff.

Action folded back around Smith who snap-called and all three hands were tabled.

Gerald Cunniff: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Nicholas Smith: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
All In Player: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Smith was ahead with his cowboys and nothing changed after the {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{q-Clubs} flop hit the felt.

The {8-Hearts} turn gave the player at risk the nut flush draw but the river came a black {a-Spades}, giving Cunniff the massive pot as he held the better kicker.
