Smith Busts One

On a board of {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}, two players checked to the last player to act. He bet 4,200. The first player folded and then the next player that had checked was Gavin Smith. Smith check-raised to 15,000, which was enough to put his opponent all in. The player tanked for several minutes before finally committing the rest of his stack. The hand he did it on was just ace high with the {A-?}{J-?} offsuit. Smith had him drawing very slim with the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}. Only an ace on the river would save the player and cost Smith the pot.

The river card was the {5-Diamonds} and Smith's jacks were still the best hand. He was able to bust the player and collect the hefty pot to put himself up to just over 50,000.
