Oya Spikes River
Level 14
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Dan Smith opened in the cutoff and action folded to Masashi Oya in the big blind who moved all in for 750,000. Smith quickly called to put his opponent at risk.
Masashi Oya: 2♦2♠
Dan Smith: A♦K♦
It was essentially a flip but Smith pulled into a commanding lead on the K♥8♥Q♦ flop. The 8♠ turn changed nothing but Oya spiked the 2♥ on the river to double and survive, leaving Smith short.
