A Boost for Smith

Justin "BoostedJ" Smith wound up all in pre-flop for 12,400 with {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. He was called by a player who tabled {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Smith completely missed a flop that came {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, leaving him in pretty dire straits. The turn {3-Spades} didn't change much, although it did give Smith a pair.

"It's coming," he said.

Sure enough, a second trey, {3-Hearts}, fell on the river to give Smith trip treys and a double-up to about 26,000.
