Gavin Smith Moves Up the Leaderboard

[user22113]

Gavin Smith just proved there's more than one way to win a race. He called a shortstack's all-in with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

and found that he was racing against pocket eights. The flop of {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{3-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

seemed a good one for his opponent, but the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

gave Gavin four additional outs. The {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

on the river gave the hand to Smith and helped continue his move toward the chip lead. He now has 66,000 chips.
