Smith Sent Packing

When we arrived at Gavin Smith's table, we saw that a huge pot was brewing. There was about 7,500 in the pot, with Smith and his opponent heads up on a board of {3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs}. There was a pink T5,000 chip in front of Smith, but his opponent had raised it to 10,000. This was just alittle more then Smith had, so it was a tough decision for him. After about 90 seconds, Smith slid the rest of his chips in, and his opponent put enough in to cover the bet. The cards were flipped, and Smith was in a world of hurt.

Smith: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Opponent: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

Smith had the best hand preflop, but his opponent caught up by flopping a set. Smith would need a two outer to survive, but he wouldn't get it, as the river brought the {q-Hearts}. Smith quickly made his way to the exit, and he will have the opportunity to return for Day 1b later today.
