Matt Marcinkiewicz opened to 110,000 from the cutoff, Mike LaTour three-bet to 300,000 on the button, Victor SMith called all in for less having just 243,000, Marcinkiewicz four-bet jammed all in for 1,076,000 and LaTour snap-called putting both players at risk.

Victor Smith: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Matt Marcinkiewicz: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Mike LaTour: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Spades}{j-Hearts}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Marcinkiewicz faded an ace and a turned flush draw to scoop a massive pot and send Smith to the rail in seventh.
