Smith Spikes a Fortunate Double

Level 33 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

With the blinds moving up, John Smith had seen his stack dwindle to fewer than 10 big blinds and a limped pot saw him check the {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop, Mark Burford checked behind. On the {4-Diamonds} turn, Smith led for 10,000 and Burford raised to 25,000, then quickly called the shove of Smith for 88,800.

John Smith: {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Mark Burford: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The magic {10-Spades} river gave Smith trips and he doubled.

"Oh come on, you gotta be kidding me," Burford gasped.
