Smith Wins a Flip and Picks Off a Bluff
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Gavin Smith was all in preflop against his opponent, who he had covered.
Opponent: A♥K♥ 
Gavin Smith: Q♣Q♠
The board ran out J♦3♣4♥8♦2♣ and Smith's pair of queens held to send his opponent to the rail.
A few hands later, Smith knocked out another opponent when he picked off a bluff on the river. With about 70,000 in the pot and the board reading 5♥7♥Q♠5♣10♣, Smith was facing an all-in bet of 46,700.
After some contemplating, Smith eventually put in the call and was pleased to see that his A♥10♥ bested his opponent's 8♦9♦.
