John Smith Eliminated After Massive Bluff
A player raised from early position and John Smith called. Quoc Vu three-bet to his direct left, the original raiser folded, and Smith called again. Both players checked the 
flop. The 
on the turn prompted a 15,000 bet from Smith, which was a sizable portion of the pot. Vu raised to 35,000 and Smith called.
The 
on the river brought four cards to a straight and Smith moved all in for 62,000. Vu was unsure how to respond to the shove and spent more than three minutes in the tank, all while Smith sat there motionless. Vu had the calling chips in hand and eventually put the chips in with a loud bang.
Smith showed 
for a pair of sevens and a missed flush draw. Vu, visibly relieved, slammed open 
for a set of sevens. The Purple Heart recipient's massive bluff didn't get through, and Vu skyrocketed to 375,000.
