Suck Out Time For Smith

Elliot Smith, who we noted the other day has having a tendency for tanking, raised it up to 7,000 preflop before Andy Stoltz bumped it up to 20,000. This sent Smith into a six-minute tankaroo, after which he decided to move all of his 87,000 into the center.

Stoltz, not to be out think-tanked decided to one up Mr. Smith by tanking for just over six minutes himself. He asked Smith if he would show if he folded, to which he got no response. Finally Stoltz found a call with {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and was spot on with his read. Smith was live though with {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, and pleaded for two eights.

The flop brought one of those eights, with the {8-Spades}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts} hitting the felt. The {4-Hearts} hit the turn, and the dealer made Smith's dream come true when the {8-Clubs} hit on the river.

As the river was dealt Smith let out a "Boom," and then a line that went something like "It's suck-out time" before going for a little stroll to relish in his win.

Smith had about 180,000 after the hand, and Stoltz was left with 270,000.
