Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

A player went all in for 11,500 from the hijack and the cutoff called for about one-third of his own stack. Alex Smith then pushed forward a stack of T5,000 chips large enough to put the cutoff all in. He thought for some time and then announced it was time to gamble.

Hijack: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Alex Smith: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

Smith scored the double knockout without a sweat as the board ran out {5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{10-Hearts} to leave his aces best and vault him over six figures.
