Smuskovics Triples, Eliminates Di Nicola
Nivel 9
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
In a pot of 12,400, Ermanno Di Nicola bet 11,500 from the small blind on a flop of Q♥10♦5♥. Nicusor Matei called in the big blind and so did Daniel Smuskovics in the hijack.
The 2♣ fell on the turn, seeing Di Nicola bet the pot of 46,900. Matei then pushed all in, covering both of his opponents. Smuskovics committed his stack of 71,000 and Di Nicola called off for 70,000 as well.
Ermanno Di Nicola: Q♦10♣5♣2♦ 
Daniel Smuskovics: A♥K♥J♦3♦
Nicusor Matei: 10♠10♥7♥6♦
Matei had the best hand with a set and was on the verge of increasing his big stack even more, but Smuskovics' combo draw came in on the K♦ river.
He made Broadway to scoop the big pot, ending up with a stack worth double the average and sending Di Nicola to the exit.
