Smith Nursing Half the Average
Reza Tabatabai opened for 12,000 from middle position and received a call from Gavin Smith in the cutoff. The button and blinds got out of the way, and it was heads-up action to the 
flop.
Tabatabai was first to act and fired out 14,000, which Smith called fairly quickly. When the 
turned, Tabatabai kept the pressure on by upping his bet to 27,000. This time Smith, who was enjoying a massage, gently slide his cards to the dealer and gave up on the hand.
