The Last Seat Goes to Kido
![[user66118]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Gavin Smith and Kido Pham took a flop of 
in a raised pot. The action was on Smith, and he tapped the table. Pham bet 20,000 quickly, and Smith called.
The 
peeled off on the turn, and Smith checked again. When Pham bet another 45,000 though, he check-raised to 168,000 total. That sent Kido pretty deep into the tank, though he's fairly deliberate with his actions anyways. He checked his cards and re-checked them several times, and he finally announced an all-in reraise. Smith called off his last ~200,000 chips, and all it was time for a showdown:
Smith: 
Pham: 
Pham was just one card from the win, and the 
on the river was not enough to Smith to get over the hump. Pham's two pair knock him out to end the night, and Smith has tallied his first cash of the 2010 WSOP. It'll be good for almost $40,000, but it's Kido Pham who gets a seat in the round of eight.
