Smith Builds a Stack

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the heads-up turn of {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, the player in the big blind checked to Bert Smith on the button, who bet 3,000.

"I am giving you a hint," Smith said, and his opponent called. On the {7-Hearts} river, the big blind bet 5,000 and Smith snap-called to get shown {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}. Smith had that beat with the {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for the better kicker and table neighbor Eric Hicks chimed in, "I told you! Every time he has the better hand."

Smith sits at more than three times the starting stack and is next to Aditya Prasetyo.
