Gavin Smith

Jean-Robert Bellande is in the room checking on his buddies who still have chip stacks. He's got ulterior motives too though, trying to convince Eric Mizrachi and Gavin Smith to go to Cuba with him. He arrived at Smith's table just as Gavin was getting involved in a pot.

On a board showing {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{4-Spades}

{A-Spades}

, Smith yelled, "All in for Cuba!" and shoved the rest of his stack forward. His opponent called him down, and Gavin tabled {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{3-Diamonds}

for the winning straight. That earns the gregarious pro a big double up to 50,000.

"I guess Cuba will have to wait," said Bellande as his buddy stacked that pot.
