Gavin Smith Eliminated in 23rd Place ($6,434)

Smith: not high enough or low enough
Smith: not high enough or low enough
Having survived one previous Stud all-in chop, Gavin Smith got involved in a large pot with Jon Turner and Matt Kelly. By the time they hit fifth street, their hands looked like:

Smith: [XX] {2-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {6-Clubs}
Turner: [XX] {4-Spades} {10-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}
Kelly: [XX] {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}

At this point Smith raised Turner's bet, and both players called. Turner bet his sixth street {4-Hearts} and Smith moved in having been dealt a {7-Clubs} . Kelly came along for the ride having picked up the {7-Spades} .

On the final street, Turner bet into the side pot, and Kelly reluctantly called saying, "I have no high, but a seven low," and showing {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {2-Clubs} . Turner had a third four down and Smith said, "Well, you guys are just going to have to chop this pot," getting up from his seat with good grace.
