Soares Wins Flip to Take Out Smith

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Alex Soares raised in middle position to 5,000 and the action folded around to Jerod Smith on the button who shoved for 25,000. The blinds got out of the way and Soares made the call.

Jerod Smith: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Alex Soares: {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

It was a classic coin flip, but the flop of {j-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} meant Smith was a big underdog. The turn {k-Clubs} gave Smith some straight outs, but the river {8-Clubs} changed nothing, and Soares pair of threes held up.
