Little Pot for Smith

Jeremiah Smith has just won a little pot to get him up to 15,600. He raised from UTG and was called by the SB. There was no action until the river when we had a {7-Spades} {4-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {J-Hearts} board. Smith bet 900, was called, and then pulled in the pot after his {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs} was good.

No Victory for Vivek

Vivek Rajkumar raised to 400 from the button and both blinds called before they all checked the {Q-Spades} {9-Hearts} {3-Clubs} flop. The BB bet 600 on the {Q-Hearts} turn and only Rajkumar called before the river fell {5-Spades}. Both players checked and the BB's {9-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} was good for the pot. Rajkumar down to 1,600 now.
