With the final board showing on the river, Dan Smith bets 10,000 from the big blind, Aleksejs Ponakovs raises from the button to 195,000, and Smith thinks for a while before he calls.

Ponakovs shows to win the pot with a rivered five-high straight, and Smith mucks.

Aleksejs Ponakovs  –  1,095,000  (110 bb)
Dan Smith  –  1,285,000  (129 bb)
