Tice Takes Down the Champ
Level 8
: 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
There will be a new $25,000 Heads Up champion this year, as reigning champ Dan Smith was just eliminated by Landon Tice.
According to Tice, he jammed all in and Smith called for around 30,000.
Dan Smith: 9♦8♦
Landon Tice: A♣2♦
Tice hit top pair on the 5♦A♠K♠ flop to leave Smith looking for a miracle runout to stay alive, but the board came 6♣8♠ and he was sent to the rail.
