Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
Alan Smith has moved into the lead after dragging a sizable pot moments ago.
He joined four others limping into a pot, but when the big blind led for 700 into a 
flop and two others called, he jacked it up to 4,000.
Only the big blind called and the 
turn was revealed. The big blind checked, but then check-raised to 10,000 total when Smith bet 5,000. Smith called and when the big blind checked the 
river, he fired out 5,000.
The big blind folded and Smith moved into the chip lead with close to 70,000.
