Game Over for Smith

Emmitt Smith

There were four players in preflop who created a pot of 2,300 when the flop came {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Seat 8 checked and Emmitt Smith bet 1,000. The players in the cutoff and button both folded and Seat 8 made the call.

The turn was the {J-Hearts} and Seat 8 checked. Smith fired out a huge bet of 15,000 and Seat 8 called. When the {9-Diamonds} came on the river, Seat 8 moved all in. Smith had fewer chips and made the call for his tournament life. Smith turned over {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for flopped trips that turned into a full house, but Seat 8 showed {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} for a bigger full house.

Smith took the beat in stride and told the table, "Nice seeing you all." He had a smile on his face as he exited the Pavilion Room. It looks like the future NFL Hall of Famer will have to wait until next year to add a WSOP Championship to his résumé.
