Chidwick Over Smith Twice

Level 11 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Dan Smith raised second to act, making it 230,000, and Stephen Chidwick defended big blind. Chidwick check-called 180,000 and then they checked to the river, leading to a board of {k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. Chidwick fired big with 1 million and Smith folded with about two seconds left on his timer.

A few hands later, Chidwick opened button for 200,000 and Smith defended his own big blind. Smith check-called 400,000 on the {9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop. On the {10-Hearts} turn, Smith checked and faced another big barrel of 1.2 million. He surrendered.
