From BoostedJ To BoostedK

Justin "BoostedJ" Smith
Justin "BoostedJ" Smith
Justin "BoostedJ" Smith was on the verge of elimination after a monstrous pot was capped four-ways on the flop, before Smith found his last chips all in on the turn.

The board read {Q-Spades}{7-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} and Smith tabled {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} for the overpair but his lone opponent showed {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for trip queens, leaving Smith in trouble.

That is, until the {K-Spades} dropped down from the heavens to give Smith a full house and the pot. For those who think Limit is a slow game, that one card has taken Smith from potential extinction to a competitive 21,000 chips.
