Anton Smirnov opened to 32,000 from middle position and received calls from Igor Zektser on the button, Michael Christ in the small blind and Viktor Blom in the big blind.
All four players checked the flop and turn leading to a final board of 6♦5♠3♥8♥7♦. Action then checked around to Smirnov who bet 96,000. Only Zektser called.
Zektser had 9♣5♥4♥3♠2♣ for a nine-high straight and four-deuce low. Smirnov tabled A♥J♦9♠5♣2♠ for the same straight and the nut-low to quarter his opponent.
Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 28th episode, Connor talks with Canadian high-stakes pro Sam Greenwood about getting into poker with his two brothers Lucas Greenwood and Max Greenwood, running up a bankroll in high school, traveling the world playing high-stakes tournaments, climbing Canada's all-time money list and battling with Vladimir "Gambledore" Korzinin at Triton.
Greenwood also talked about the state of online poker, how to deal with cheaters, being a dad and his new "Punt of the Day" blog where he breaks down key hands from high-stakes tournaments.
