Chidwick Sends Smith to the Rail
Level 12
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Dan Smith was short stacked with 250,000 remaining and in middle position near the end of Level 12. He decided to make a stand and moved all in.
The action folded to Stephen Chidwick, who was on the button and made the call. The two blinds folded and the cards were tabled.
Dan Smith: J♥10♠
Stephen Chidwick: A♥9♦
The dealer placed 6♥A♥Q♠ on the board, pairing Chidwick’s ace but giving Smith a Broadway straight draw. But the straight didn’t come, as 6♣ appeared on the turn and 3♥ showed up on the river to end Smith’s night.
