Smith Stumbles

[user162117]

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Our PokerNews Reporter came to Dan Smith's table to see him locked in a hand, having Manny Rodriguez all-in with a flop showing {a-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {j-Diamonds} .

Smith: {10-Clubs} {9-Clubs}
Rodriguez: {a-Diamonds} {j-Hearts}

Rodriguez would need to dodge all the clubs, queens and sevens if he was going to stay alive in this tournament.

With a {9-Spades} on the turn you can add another card that Rodriguez would need to dodge, but the river fell the safe {8-Diamonds} and Dan Smith would take a big hit to his stack, falling to 35,000.
