Smith Triples Up With Quads
Level 8
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
There was a raise to 3,300 from under the gun, Chris Smith flat-called from middle position, and the button mistakenly put in 5,300 trying to call.
The ruling is that it was a raise and the original raiser called. Smith ripped it in for about 21,000 and only the button called.
Button: 
Chris Smith: 
It was great news for Smith on the 
flop as he made a set of jacks. The turn 
was a dangerous one though as the button picked up some boat outs.
The river, however, peeled off the last jack in the deck 
, to give Smith quads over kings full. With that pot, Smith moves back above his starting stack thanks to a little run good.
