Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

An interesting hand just played out over on Table 9.

There was a {6-Hearts}{10-Spades}{2-Spades} flop out on the felt. One player led for 1,500. Another flat-called and then James Smith raised to a massive 25,000. Robert Spano was next to act and he bombed it for 31,075. The first two players to act got out of the way and it was back on Smith.

This is when it got interesting because Spano showed his {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} before Smith had called the extra 5,175. Seeing those two cards was enough to make Smith go into the tank, despite there already being around 60,000 in the pot and Smith had already committed 25,000.

Eventually Smith called and showed his {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}.

The turn was a {q-Diamonds} and the river was a {k-Hearts} and so the big pot went to Spano and he is now the chip leader!
