William Smith opened to 45,000 preflop from the button and Alex Greenblatt defended from the big blind.
The flop came out K♥10♦J♦ and Greenblatt checked to Smith who continued for 40,000.
Greenblatt thought about it for a second before he shoved all-in and Smith snap-called and rolled over A♠Q♣ for flopped Broadway while Greenblatt sighed and flipped over J♥10♣ for two-pair.
The board ran out clean for Smith with the 7♦2♠ and he scooped the large pot for a big double-up that puts him right over 1,000,000.

Nicholas Rigby Talks "Dirty Diaper" Strategy in the 2023 WSOP Main Event
Niveau 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Pittsburgh's Nicholas Rigby made a name for himself in the poker community in 2021 when he ran deep in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event by playing deuce-three offsuit at every given opportunity. Known as the "The Dirty Diaper" in his local games, Rigby kept his opponents guessing by bluffing, value betting and doing everything else in between with the less-than-premium holding.
Two years later, Rigby again finds himself making a deep run in poker's most prestigious event. And for those wondering, he hasn't forgotten about The Dirty Diaper, a hand he used to build up a Day 1d chip lead that further grew on Day 2d to see him bag the second biggest stack in the room.
PokerNews caught up with Rigby on Day 3 to talk about his tried-and-true loose-aggressive strategy in the WSOP Main Event. Heading into Day 5, Rigby finds himself with a stack of 3,655,000 near the top of the chip counts.
