Samuel Higgs Defeats Dan Smith

Level 3 : 300/600, 0 ante

As told to us by Samuel Higgs, the flop read {K-}{9-}{3-} and Dan Smith checked from the big blind. Higgs checked from the button and a {2-} turn fell. Smith bet 5,000, Higgs called, and a {4-} river completed the board.

Smith shoved for about 18,000 and Higgs called instantly with {6-}{5-} for the nut straight, besting Smith's {K-}{3-} to advance to the next round.
