Juanda Loses Out on the River
Level 5
: 250/500, 50 ante
Kenneth Smaron was on the button and he opened the betting with a raise to 1,050. The small blind folded, but John Juanda reraised to 4,000 from the big blind. Smaron called.
Juanda led for 4,500 on the 
flop and was called. Both players then checked the 
turn and the 
river, Juanda turning over the 
and losing to his opponent's 
that had improved to the best hand on the river.
