Smith Leads the River
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Mark Steven Smith opened from under the gun to 25,000 and got a call from Razvan Sabau in the hijack. Sakis Nicolaou also came along from the big blind.
The flop came 10♠5♠K♦ which was checked to Sabau, who fired 35,000. Nicolaou folded, and Smith called.
When the 2♥ dropped on the turn, both checked to the 6♣ river where Smith led out for 80,000. Sabau thought it over for a while but ultimately decided on a fold.
