Smith in the Tank

Another few minutes of Justin Smith-based tension on the bubble as three players (Smith, Friberg in the small blind and Jeff Madsen in the big) limped and checked their way to the turn of a {5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} board. Friberg checked again, but Madsen bet 5,600. Smith called, Friberg folded, and they were heads up to the river.

The river in question was the {6-Diamonds} and this time Madsen bet out 11,600. Smith disappeared into the tank for a really impressive amount of time, periodically pointing at the pot in a counting-in-his-mind kind of way.

After several minutes of tanking while players at the other tables craned over to see what was going on, Smith announced, "Take it," and passed.
