Smith Fades Polk's "Big Hand"
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Doug Polk raised to 1,500 on the button and was called by Mike Smith in the small blind and the player in the big blind.
Smith led out for 1,600 on the 3♦5♣4♥ flop and only the big blind called.
Action then checked down on the J♠ turn and 9♥ river and Smith tabled A♠4♦ for a pair of fours. His opponent mucked and Smith added to his stack.
"I just want you to know that I would have made a big hand," Polk said. "And the table feels bad for me."
