Gotta Win Your Flips with Smith
Level 12
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
"Cowboy" Dan Smith raised to 5,000 preflop, but was then three-bet by Toni Kaukua to 12,000. Smith then just ripped it all in for 35,600. After a confirmed count, Kaukua made the call and the two tabled their cards, with Smith at risk.
Dan Smith: 
Toni Kaukua: 
Smith was heavily dominated preflop, but the poker gods answered his prayers and delivered a flop of 
for top two pair.
The turn 
left Kaukua drawing to only a queen, but the 
river did not provide and Smith was shipped the pot for a full double up.
