Elliot Smith Unable to Fade Multiple Outs

Chris Moorman raised things preflop to 5,300 from early position. The button re-raised all in to 36,200. Elliot Smith, in the big blind, three-bet and shoved for his stack of 53,700. Moorman is playing a huge stack, but opted to get out of the way.

Smith: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Smith stayed ahead on the {2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{q-Hearts} flop, but his opponent picked up a ton of outs when the {j-Hearts} fell on the turn. The {9-Clubs} brought one of those outs, giving Smith's opponent a queen-high straight.

Smith is now sitting at about 17,500
