"That's What I Get for Playing that Shit"

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
John Smith

An all in and call were overheard as a preflop raising war resulted in John Smith's stack of 41,300 getting into the middle under the gun against Peter Johnson, who was in the cutoff.

John Smith: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Peter Johnson: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

The flop came {8-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades} to leave Johnson out in front, with Smith picking up a backdoor heart draw to go along with his two outs to a set. The turn {3-Hearts} came behind it.

"Wow," said tablemate Dapo Ajayi as he realized the backdoor possibility was real. It then completed on the river {10-Hearts} to improve Smith to a flush and best Johnson's aces.

"Wow," Smith said after the runout completed. "That's what I get for playing that shit," he added in a joking manner.
