Dan Smith Cracks Romanello's and Rast's Aces

Level 14 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

In what turned out to be a flurry of action preflop, Dan Smith, Roberto Romanello, and Brian Rast were all in, with Smith having the largest stack. Romanello and Rast both had pocket aces, and Smith tabled {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}.

The flop came {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, and Smith took a commanding lead in the hand. The turn was the {3-Clubs}, which sealed the deal for Smith, and the {q-Spades} completed the board.

Rast started the hand with around 200,000, and Romanello had roughly 300,000. The dealer pushed all of the chips toward Smith, and he continued to stack them for next two hands.
