Known as 'Danny98765' on PokerStars, but better known as 'KingDan23' on other sites, Smith managed to run pocket queens into Marco Vailati's pocket aces, leaving himself just under 15,000 in chips. Moments later, Smith moved all in from early position for his last 13,300 and was looked up by one of the table's big stacks (and big blind at the time), David Eldar. Smith was in front when the hole cards were revealed:
Smith:
Eldar:
The
flop that ensued still had Smith in front, but the 
that fell on the turn gave Edlar a pair and proved to be fatal for Smith. Failing to catch a life-saving ace on the river 
, Smith was eliminated from the tournament just outside of the money.
