Smith Puts on the Pressure
Level 5
No-Limit Hold'em
David "ODB" Baker opened under the gun to 6,000. Dan Smith called in middle position and Brian Yoon defended his big blind.
The K?5?3? board checked to Baker who put out a bet of 20,000. Dan Smith was next to act and put in the raise to 60,000. Yoon got out of the way and Baker went into the tank for about a minute before he made the call.
The 4? turn hit the board and Baker checked again. Smith went into the tank for almost two minutes before putting out another bet of 75,000. Baker looked over his chips, did some accounting of Smith's, and eventually decided to return his cards to the dealer.
Smith dragged a much needed pot to get him back over starting stack.
