Smith Hits the Jack to Crack Lansford's Kings
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
After a preflop betting war, Michael Smith (SK) and Gary Lansford got all their chips into the middle, with Smith at risk of elimination.
Michael Smith (SK): J♥J♠
Gary Lansford: K♦K♠
Smith was in rough shape with his inferior pair of jacks, but that didn't matter as the flop came out 10♠8♣J♦ to give him top set and a big lead. The runout of 10♣2♥ only improved him to the top full house and he was shipped the pot for a double while Lansford was left short.
