Smith Loses Another

Gavin Smith is having a hard time finding a forward gear today.

When the player under the gun raised to 425, Smith called as did the button. Action then checked to Smith on a flop of {6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and he led out for 1,000. The button called and under-the-gun folded.

Smith then check-called for 2,100 when the {Q-Diamonds} hit fourth street, and both players checked the {2-Diamonds} on the river. Smith turned over {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a pair of sixes, but couldn't beat his opponent who showed {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a pair of sevens. Smith slipped to 26,000 after the hand.
