Smith Calls Clock On Himself

Elliot Smith raised from early position and [Removed:415] made the call in the small blind.

The flop landed {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades} and although the action was unclear, the pot was 60,000 as both players went to the {K-Diamonds} turn.

Doria led out for 50,000 to send Smith into the tank...again. Smith is never in a hurry and thought long and hard before eventually calling the clock on himself! Before the clock ticked down Smith announced a raise to 300,000 which was good to take it down as Doria folded.

Smith is up to close to 500,000 chips.
