Brave Call

Portered Outa Here
Portered Outa Here
Rep Porter limped from under the gun and then called a raise from Jeremiah Smith in the cutoff.

The flop was checked through, so the board was {9-Clubs} {10-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} at the turn stage.

Smith bet 2,100 when it was checked to him, before facing a 9,100 all-in bet from Porter. Amazingly he made the call with {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} and was ahead of his Porter's {7-Clubs} {8-Clubs}.

The river came {5-Spades} meaning a pair of nines with a king kicker played to eliminate another player. Smith on 93,000 right now.
