Max Pressure from Smith
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With three players seeing a board of J♠7♥6♠ and roughly 60,000 already in the middle, Robert Heidorn checked in the big blind and Oleg Netaliev checked from under the gun. Mark Smith bet 28,000 only for Heidorn to check-raise to 84,000. Netaliev got out of the way and Smith moved all in, covering Heidorn who with roughly 560,000 behind already had an above-average stack himself.
Heidorn took about 30 seconds before deciding to fold and Smith was awarded a sizable pot without having to see a flop.
