Smith With a Fantastic Lay Down

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We caught the action on the river of a {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board in a pot that had already reach what appeared to be no less than 70,000 chips. PokerStars Team Pro Gualter Salles was first to act and he moved all in for 51,100. Gavin Smith appeared pained by the decision and eventually folded {j-}{8-} face up. Salles tabled {3-}{3-} for a full house and Smith maintains a healthy stack of 88,000 with that great fold.
