Chris Smith On An Early Heater

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Chris Smith is currently sitting on about 100k and filled in PokerNews on two of his hands.

First, Smith opened the button with {a-Spades}{k-Spades} and was called by his opponent in the big blind.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, the big blind checked and Smith continued for 900. The big blind called.

On the turn {q-Diamonds}, Smith was checked too again and he fired another 2,600. His opponent called and they saw a river of the {9-Hearts}. The big blind check-called for a third time as Smith put in his last 7,500.

The big blind showed {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and learned he was outkicked as the pot went to Smith.

Shortly after that, a player opened the button to 1,400 and Smith defended his big blind with {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. Smith checked and the opener continued for 3,500. Smith raised to 9,000 and his opponent went all in for 21,400 and Smith called.

Smith: {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Opponent: {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The board ran out with a {4-Spades} and {7-Clubs} and Smith's two pair sent him the pot.
