With a pair of very short stacks yet to act, Don Nguyen raised. Dan Smith moved all-in for his last 30,000, and in the big blind, Daniel Zack called for his last 17,000.

He squeezed a none-across, giving him a chance of hitting that deuce, but it turned out to be another , ending his night in 12th place.
