Disastrous Start for Dan Smith

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

In the first hand he played today, disaster struck Dan Smith. We didn't see the hand unfold, but the pro did tweet a picture showing what happened. As you can see below, Smith held the {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} on a {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{j-Spades} board for aces full of queens. Unfortunately for him, Alexander Timokhin held the {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for quads! It appeared Timokhin doubled on the hand and Smith was crippled.
