Matthew Smith (Margate, FL) has managed to recover from losing a hand where he was left with 20,000 chips...which was just there big blinds. |
After taking his bad beat in stride earlier (when Brett Bader hit a one-outer to step away a 270,000 pot), Matt Smith was able to turn the 20,000 he was left with, to over 100,000. Moments ago, he was all-in (pre-flop) and at risk against Noel Atherley, for a pot worth 245,000:
Smith: A♠ Q♥
Atherley: A♣ K♦
Runout: J♦ 10♥ 8♣ 6♣ K♦
"Don't worry, I never win these," Atherley said aloud, once the hands were on their backs. Things were looking bleak for Smith, but he spiked a king on the river to make broadway, and would double up.
Matt Smith - 245,000 (30bb)
Noel Atherley - 160,000 (20bb)
