Smith Running Down

Dan Smith
Dan Smith

It looks like the the €50,000 Super High Roller got the most of Dan Smith and left him with no fuel for the Main Event. He hit another wall in last year's WSOP November niner Sam Holden.

Holden opened the hand with a 1,000 raise in the early position and was called by Smith on his immediate left. The two were the only ones to see the flop go {9-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {6-Diamonds}. Holden continued for 1,200 and Smith called again.

The dealer opened {4-Spades} on the turn and Holden went in with another 5,000 and Smith made the call. Holden maintained the aggression by going all-in for his remaining stack of 8,100 after the river went {J-Diamonds} and again Smith called.

Holden opened {9-Clubs} {6-Clubs} for a two pair and Smith mucked his hand in disappointment, but the dealer made him show the {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}.
