Smith Silenced

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

JC Tran opened his button to 1,200 only to have the small blind move all in for 11,975. With the action on Dan Smith in the big blind, he pushed his final 9,250 into the pot as Tran quickly mucked.

Smith: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

With Smith in great shape to double, the {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop would now leave him drawing to just one out, and when the {7-Clubs} and {5-Clubs} completed the turn and river, Smith was forced to hit the rail.
