Adam Smith - 11th Place

David Larson raised the button to 28,000 and Cody Courtois called from the small blind. Adam Smith then three-bet all in for just 18,000 more from the big and Larson got out of the way. Courtois called and the hands were turned up.

Smith: {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Courtois: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Smith got it in good but fell behind on the {k-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop. The {7-Clubs} turn gave Smith a couple more outs but he missed when the {3-Diamonds} bricked the river.

Studenicka Doubles Through Larson

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Todd Studenicka moved all in for 26,000 under the gun and David Larson isolated with a three-bet to 42,000 from the cutoff.

Studenicka: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Larson: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The {j-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop gave Larson an open-ended straight draw, which meant if Studenicka paired he'd be drawing dead. Fortunately for him, he didn't as the {2-Spades} bricked the turn followed by the {3-Spades} on the river. Ship the double to Studenicka.
