State Takes from Smolka
Level 31
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Adrian State raised to 300,000 from the cutoff, and Dawid Smolka three-bet the button to 750,000. After the blinds folded, State made the call.
State check-called a bet of 450,000 by Smolka on the Q♦10♥4♠ flop, and the two players saw the 10♦ appear on the turn. State led out for 750,000, which Smolka called.
The 8♣ rolled off on the river, and both players checked. State turned over K♦8♦ for a flush draw on the turn, which improved to a pair of eights on the river. Smolka may not have seen State's rivered pair, as he revealed A♥4♦ for a just pair of fours.
