Smith Punishes the Limpers
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Keith Rodgers limped in from middle position and another player in the cutoff called before Tyler Smith raised to 5,000 on the button. The big blind, Rodgers, and cutoff all called.
Smith bet 7,000 on the 8♠3♦Q♠ flop, and only Rodgers called. The turn was the K♥ and Smith bet another 10,000. Rodgers again called.
The 8♥ fell on the river and Smith bet 10,000 once more. Rodgers quickly called, and Smith turned over A♠K♣ for two pair to win the pot.
