"I Needed That One"

Level 10 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Adrian Mateos had raised from under the gun and was called by Talal Shakerchi on the button and Dan Smith in the big blind. On the {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop, Smith and Mateos checked to Shakerchi, who bet 260,000 and was called both ways. The {4-Hearts} turn and {K-Hearts} river run out brought no betting action anymore and Smith turned over {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}.

Mateos mucked {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and Shakerchi didn't show his cards.

"Phew, I needed that one," Smith said while stacking the chips.
