Smirnov Scores the Double
Niveau 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Calen McNeil opened to 110,000 from under the gun and Ryan Hoenig called to his immediate left. Anton Smirnov then three-bet to 465,000, seeing a call from McNeil and a fold from Hoenig.
The flop of 5♥J♦8♠ brought a bet of 450,000 from Smirnov, leaving just 20,000 behind. McNeil called to the 5♣ turn and the rest of the chips found the middle.
Anton Smirnov: A♠A♥7♣4♠
Calen McNeil: A♦K♥3♦2♦
The J♠ river left Smirnov's two pair in front while leaving no low on the board, good for the double-up through McNeil.
