Ladies Gang Up to Send Smokey to the Showers

[user66118]

That's the end of the line for Steve "MrSmokey1" Billirakis. As we returned to the floor, we saw him dropping another pot to Linda Johnson. Billirakis had {7-} {7-} {X-} {X-} showing, but Johnson made an ace-high spade flush to all but end his hopes. He was reduced to just 1,500, and moments later, he was all-in in a multiway pot.

Billirakis' final board ran out ( {A-Spades} {3-Diamonds} ) / {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {5-Spades} / ( {6-Diamonds} ). The other lady at the table ran out a high board of ( {6-Hearts} {4-Hearts} ) / {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {9-Hearts} / ( {2-Spades} ), and a third player made a stronger low than Billirakis could muster.
