Early All-In

With a 3,000 starting stack, it doesn't take too long for the chips to hit the middle, as was the case for online sensation Justin Smith. On this occasion, however, it was an intriguing overbet against Nikolay Edvakov that led to the all-in.

With the Russian opening for 100 from the hijack, Smith made the call from the button leading to a {J-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop where Edvakov made a continuation bet of 100. Smith called.

Both players checked the {7-Spades} turn, but after Edvakov had checked the {10-Diamonds} river, Smith moved all in for 2,550! Despite his suspicions, Edvakov made the fold.
