Gavin Smith Gets Rivered

Level 4

Hold'em:

We caught up with a hand involving Gavin Smith and an unknown opponent. From under-the-gun, Smith raised to 450 and was three-bet to 600 by his opponent. The Canadian pro made the call and the dealer flopped {Q-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}.

Smith checked to his opponent and then called a bet of 150, bringing a turn card of {4-Spades}. Smith again check-called, this time for 300 chips. The river fell {9-Hearts} and Smith checked it for a third time. His opponent fired 300 more into the middle and Smith made the quick call. His opponent instantly tabled his {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for a rivered set and Smith shot a look of disgust at the player before mucking his hand.
