Aiyah!

Jeremiah Smith could only grimace and shake his head. He did everything right but didn't win the pot. On a three-way flop of {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

, Smith bet 7,000 after the big blind checked. His other opponent, the player in the cutoff seat, raised to 26,800, folding the big blind. Once Smith got a count on the raise, he moved all in. His opponent snap-called to a showdown.

Smith: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

Opponent:

{6-Clubs}

{6-Spades}

"Pair the board please," Smith's opponent asked the dealer. He didn't get his wish on the {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

turn, but he did with the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

river. Smith's stack has been cut in half.
