Smith Trips Up Two Players

Gavin Smith - increasingly chipped up
Gavin Smith - increasingly chipped up
Gavin Smith is doing pretty well at this stage, and just took down a pot which swelled threeway until sixth street and then fizzled out on the river (much to his scooping delight).

The three hands which made it pretty far were:

Jan Sjavik: [XX]{A-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {J-Hearts}
Gavin Smith: [XX]{3-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {4-Spades} {A-Clubs}
Dutch Boyd: [XX]{A-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {5-Hearts}

Sjavik had been betting up until fifth street, when he was raised by Smith. Both players made the call, but when Smith bet sixth, Sjavik folded and left it to the two of them. They received their final cards; Boyd checked to Smith, who bet yet again. Boyd thought for a long time, looked at his opponent's hand and then finally laid his own down.

Smith showed him {J-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {4-Clubs} anyway.
