Smith Yearns for the Mines
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Michael Smith raised to 400 from middle position before Mikolaj Zawadzki three-bet to 1,900 from the small blind. Smith put in the extra chips and the pair saw a flop of 8?A?10?.
Zawadzki made a continuation-bet of 1,200 and Smith called once more. The 10? turn and 7? river were then checked by both players, after which Zawadzki showed 9?8? for two pair with tens and eights.
Smith played a higher two pair with his K?K?, and the pot was sent his way.
"I was set mining," Smith explained his preflop call while he was stacking his chips.
