Howard Smith Quarters Igor Sharaskin
Level 28
: 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
Big-O
Vladimir Shchemelev raised to 50,000 from under the gun, Howard Smith three-bet to 125,000 from the button, and Igor Sharaskin moved all in from the big blind for about 480,000. Shchemelev folded, and Smith called to put Sharaskin at risk.
Smith: 
Sharaskin: 
The board ran out 
to give both players a ten-high straight, but Smith also had the better low, so he took three-quarters of the pot.
