The flop came down {K-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {5-Spades}. The small blind checked, the big blind bet 700. Smith called while the cutoff, button, and small blind folded. The players were heads up to the turn.

The turn was the {K-Spades} and the big blind bet 700 again. Smith called.

The river was the {7-Spades} and the big blind upped his bet to 1,300 on the final card. Smith made the call.

The big blind showed {J-Spades} {5-Hearts} and Smith showed {K-Clubs} {10-Hearts} for three kings and the winning hand. He is now up to 26,000.
