Smidinger Cools Off Messick

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Eric Smidinger opened to 4,000 and Ryan Messick called. Smidinger bet on the flop of {6-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Messick raised to 14,000. Smidinger moved all in for 53,000 and Messick called with a bigger stack.

Eric Smidinger: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Ryan Messick: {k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Smidinger had flopped bottom set against the top two pair of Messick and his set held up as the board finished out {3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

"I'm glad you didn't have a flush draw," Smidinger said after the third club hit.
