Smith Finds Thin River Value Against Koon

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Dan Smith opened from the cutoff to 8,000 and Jason Koon three-bet on the button to 26,000. Action folded back to Smith who called.

The flop was {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and both players checked. They checked again on the {k-Hearts} turn.

The river was the {2-Spades} and now Smith led for 35,000. Koon tanked a bit, then looked him up but was no good. Smith showed down {q-Spades}{10-Spades} and Koon mucked so Smith was awarded the pot.
