Smith Beats Ni in Showdown
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Elliot Smith raised to 12,000 with the K♣J♥ and Liangce Ni called from one seat over with the 8♥8♣. The J♣7♥4♣ flop was checked by Smith and he then checked a bet worth 15,000. Fast forward to the 5♦ turn, Smith checked once more and Li now bet 26,000.
Smith then noticed he had forgotten his time bank cards when moving tables and there was a small delay before they proceeded with the Canadian check-calling. That led to the 10♦ river on which both checked for Smith to win the pot.
