Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante
Mark "Pegasus" Smith
Mark "Pegasus" Smith

Mark "Pegasus" Smith raised to 850 from middle position and received a call from a player in late position. It was heads up to the {5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop and Smith led out for 1,200, which his opponent called.

The dealer proceeded to burn and turn the {7-Spades} and this time Smith checked, prompting the late-position player to bet 6,000. Smith snap-called and then checked the {6-Clubs} river. His opponent moved all in for 9,600 and Smith made the call holding {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. It was good and Smith clapped his hands and let loose a celebratory "Yeah" as he collected the pot and increased his stack to 50,000.
