Smith Runs Into Quads!

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

Gavin Smith opened to 125 from under the gun, before his opponent to his left, bumped it up to 275. The action folded back around to Smith, who made the call, as both players saw the flop come {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Both checked, as the {6-Diamonds} fell on the turn. Smith checked, as his opponent led out for 425, which was called.

The river brought the {10-Diamonds}, before Smith slid out a bet of over 5,000 in chips, which had his opponent covered, who snap called the bet.

Smith tabled his {q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a rivered flush, but had lost the hand against his opponent, who quickly tabled his {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for quad threes.

“Four threes?” said Smith, looking over at his opponent’s hand. “Very nice,” he added.

“Great flop, great run out,” replied his opponent, who welcomed the double up.
