Smith Needs A Boost

Justin "Boosted J" Smith was just at the wrong end of the dreaded Aces vs. Kings preflop cooler. As we walked over we heard the cry of all in and a call and saw that Smith held {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}, but was dominated by his opponentns {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}. The flop gave Smith no help, coming {4-Hearts}{q-Spades}{6-Spades}. The turn was paint, but it was the {j-Spades}, giving both players a flush draw, with Smith having the weaker one. The river came the {a-Diamonds}, and Smith shipped over half his stack over to his opponent, knocking him down to just over 10,000.
