Smith Snags an Early Lead

Level 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Dan Smith opened for 5,500 from the cutoff and was called by both Joseph Elpayaa and Jean Fracois Talbot. Action was on Gavin Smith in the big, who said, "We gonna have a family pot?," as he looked down at his hole cards.

Apparently not, as Smith then flung out a raise to 27,000. Everyone folded.

"I wasn't bull-shittin' guys," Gavin said as he slammed down {A-}{K-} face up.

Gavin is up to 172,000.
