Smith Checks it Down and Scoops
Action began on Gavin Smith under-the-gun, who opened to 4,400. He was called by the player directly behind him and another player in middle position. John Tabatabai then three-bet to 14,000 from the small blind. Smith called and everyone else folded for a heads-up pot.
Both players then proceeded to check down every street on the 
board. Tabatabai tabled 
and Smith flipped over 
for nines and fives and scooped the pot.
Gavin is sitting on 95,000.
